A Spot of Tea with Tea Savant….

Tea Savant is an awesome online store out of Los Angeles offering the finest in, you guessed it, any & all kinds of TEAS you can imagine. Since meeting up with them via Twitter, we began to chat & I was so excited when they offered to send me some of their varieties to try. While I am a definitely a coffee girl in the morning, there’s nothing like that afternoon slump when you can take a break to enjoy some tea. It always manages to bring me back to my “best” during a weekday, but without those java jitters.

For those moments, I reached for Dragon Darjeeling, their strongest & very robust chai tea. A black tea that offers much spice, I enjoyed it straight, but I know a lot of folks enjoy their stronger caffeine fixes with some cream/sugar, which go good with Dragon Darjeeling. I really could taste the cinnamon that’s an ingredient, which is a match made above for me πŸ˜‰

With warmer days here, it’s always great when you can reach for the iced tea…instead of popping a few dollars per hot day moment & craving at the coffeehouse. I decided to try the Green Passion & its perfect. Its got a hint of grape & pear cooked in Sauvignon Blanc…how can this not be delicious?!

My 3rd sample was a tea I had been wanting to try lately, a Jasmine called Imperial Jasmine Pearls. A green, this one has many lighter notes & while the caffeine is there, it’s very mild. I love the aroma of Jasmine & enjoyed this cup after dinner…a low-cal dessert, you could say!

Tea Savant always has a great Sale section on the web-site, & right now if you order 4 samples Β from them, enter the code SAMPLE for $3 off, & don’t forget: Free shipping on $20 or more orders! πŸ™‚ Make sure to LIKE them on Facebook & Twitter, too! xo

(Disclosure: I was provided 3 complimentary samples to try & review. All opinions are my own & they were lovely teas.)

    I recently stopped drinking my morning cup of Joe (the horror!) and am now trying to stick with coffee as a weekend treat (otherwise too much cream and sugar). So that means I’ve been getting more into tea lately, so it’s good to see this post come along πŸ˜‰

    Yay tea! I am obsessed;) I can’t function without a cup in the morning, but I rely just as much on my afternoon tea to keep my head in the game. So cool that you got to try these!

      That’s so cool, Cameron! Are you into coffee, or tea all the way? πŸ™‚
