Tea Party; Get Your Steep On

Guess what January is?


National Hot Tea Month! Did you know that tea is the second most consumed beverage in the world, after water?

There are 4 main types of tea: White, Green, Oolong and Black. All of these have cancer fighting properties and antioxidants (green and white tea have the most).

Herbal teas like chamomile, ginger, or mint tea are not actually “tea” in the traditional sense (they’re not from the leaves of the plant camellia sinensis) – but are a mixture of herbs that still have extremely beneficial properties.

Green Tea

So skip the afternoon coffee and instead warm up with a cup of hot tea. Check out Teavana and Adiago for some yummy ideas! Maybe even throw yourself a tea partaaay- And for this we can check out one of my favorite you tube videos of all time:

“Cause no one’s harder than a new england gangster

we drink raw tea on the south wing veranda

let’s have a tea partay

high tea in the parlor makes the ladies holler”

So go girls and boys, get your steep on. Ps, according to this website, tomorrow January 12 is the Feast of Fabulous Wild Men day when you, yes even you, gentlemen, should “Ogle and whistle at all the hunks you come across” – Even I couldn’t make this up. Amazing. Just choose your targets wisely.
