And my annual round up of favorite seasonal teas starts today....


These are the ones I have had in the past or re-buy, and the additions of some new ones as I find them
Today...
Harney & Sons Holiday Tea...always warm and tasty
Republic Of Tea Comfort And Joy...lots of fruit and cinnamon
Harney & Sons White Christmas Tea...a bit lighter and not quite so spicy, just delicious
More tomorrow...
Hope your week is full of festive tea, friends and enjoyment of the shortest day...looking forward to a longer one tomorrow...

  2. Happy First Day of Winter, Ruth! I enjoyed seeing your stash of seasonal teas. I've had the Harney & Sons teas, but the Republic of Teas are, sadly, not available in my neck of the woods.
