Tea-Current Favorites!

So. I'm a big tea drinker. I love my tea. I drink tea in the morning, I drink tea on-the-go, and I drink at least 3 cups of tea before bed. I know that there are some other avid tea drinkers out there.. So I thought I 'd let you know some of my current favorites :).


"• Rose and lavender warm the heart
• Elderflower and chamomile relax and soothe
• Marigold petals are beautifully balancing"

Chamomile is a must for me. I get really energized at nighttime, I always feel like getting work done when I should be sleeping and vice versa. If I start drinking something with chamomile in it a few hours before bed it helps me get sleep when I need it. 
Rose is another favorite because it's my favorite flower & smell.


I haven't drank much of this one yet, but it's really simple. It's an herbal blend of red clover, nettle leaves and dandelion leaves. The only thing I will say, is I add a lot of honey to this one because the taste is kind of bland at first in my opinion. 

Since I was really little my mom gave me "Sleepy Time Tea"-
Any chamomile tea will help relax you before bed, but getting a tea that is labeled for 'sleep' specifically  is always good because it probably has other herbs it in to also help soothe and relax. This specific tea has chamomile, lemongrass, and spearmint. I personally love this brand because of the good memories it brings back :). Tea is kind of like a perfume sometimes, it can bring back a certain place, or memory, or time of year depending on whats in it. Pretty cool. 


My current obsession for tea is a store called "Teavana"-  
Everytime I walk into this store I want to buy everything. Unfortunately their teas are a bit expensive for me personally. So I have to get a can of tea every once an a while. The fun part about these teas is that they are loose leaf. You can find tea bags at pretty much any store that sells tea and they are inexpensive. The tea looks so pretty with the flowers and herbs still visible in it. The entire store smells AMAZING. Most Teavana stores make tea in the store to-go which gives you a chance to try it out. 
A personal favorite of mine is the Lavender Dreams White Tea, and the Rooibos Chai Tea, but I've only tried a few so go look around!


Comment and let me know your thoughts! :)
