As the weather turns colder I find that I am not brewing up some iced tea and taking it for a hike so much anymore. More and more I find myself sitting inside with a warm cup of yerba mate, telling myself I ought to get some exercise. And yet my body just sits there. It doesn’t listen at all. Has this ever happened to you?
Anyway, I was wasting too much time surfing the old internet instead of exercising, and as usual, found something great about tea-- specifically green tea, and an interesting way to…shall we say “imbibe” it? Apparently when there’s no gravity, you can eat tea with chopsticks! Crazy right! Check it out!
SinceJasmine Spice taught me how to share videos with you, I just had to pass along this great clip that Mr. Great Tea Date sent me this week. I nearly spilled my full cup of Oolong Loose Leaf Tea I was so excited to see this. On our date, I happened to mention that I seriously love Doris Day. Who doesn’t? She’s the queen of the perfectly polite insult, of looking fabulous at all times, and getting the guy with her wondrous charm. Why were we talking about Doris Day on a tea ceremony date?

Hey Tea Lovers! Jasmine here, coming to you from the hallowed halls of my alma mater, good old Tea U.
I was noticing today that all the fast food joints on the quad seem to sell a LOT of soda. So as I sit here sipping from my thermos of iced tea (Apple Mango herbal tea, to be exact—mmm!), I thought I might take a moment to point out that tea isn’t just for incredibly old fogies like the Earl of Grey or Master Amanzi. With all the health benefits of tea coming out these days, and increase in availability of different tea options, tea is becoming more popular than ever!
I thought you should know that young people don’t all want to drink hot tub-sized cups of super sweet, overly caffeinated soda. It’s just not good for you. And those that do, well, they’re probably already hopped up on sugar to be rational. So I wanted to tell you a little bit about what to look for when you get tea for your kids.
