For the tea enthusiast, because going back for seconds is what we do. Instead of heating one cup of tea at a time in the microwave, we have a whole pot for as many cups as we desire!
Electric Tea Kettle
My personal opinion is that tea tastes better when you have a favorite mug to drink it from. Plus a good book to read.
Coffee Mugs & Tea Cups - Target
Try adding honey, rather than sugar, to sweeten your tea. Honey has a number of health benefits, including aiding digestion, improving immunity, lowering inflammation and giving your body antioxidants.
Nature Nate's Raw US Honey, 40 oz. - BJ's Wholesale Club
There is a curious habit of adding milk or cream to tea in Europe. I find that I quite like adding cream. It makes the tea taste a bit richer afterwards.
Milk
Tea spoons are useful for stirring my tea, and if I need to measure out loose leaf tea. Plus, I just feel so fancy using them!

This is my all-time favorite tea. It also helps with weight loss and stress relief.
Loose Leaf Jasmine Tea - The Tea Spot
I like this tea when I'm battling the sniffles, and it's helpful for getting rid of nausea. Also a great wintertime tea.
Loose Leaf Ginger Root Teas - The Tea Spot
Great for lung health. For anyone who likes sour patch kids or any other kind of sour gummy, you'll love the flavor of this tea!
Hibiscus Tea, Organic - The Tea Spot
This tea is said to reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.
Loose Leaf Green Tea - The Tea Spot
Good for your digestive tract and for relieving cramps. Also a great winter tea.

I drink this whenever I feel under the weather. It's great for a quick recovery.
Immunity Tea with Elderberries, Organic Herbal Cold Buster
If I think I've been exposed to anyone else with the sniffles, or I wake up and feel slightly off, I drink this tea. It boosts the immune system to fight off germs before they can make you sick.
Echinacea Plus® Tea
We drink several different types of mint tea. This is one of my husband's favorite flavors. It helps improve digestion.
Spearmint Tea
I drink this and imagine I'm British, or living in a high class society. It just feels like a fancy tea. Also this tea is good for your heart.
English Breakfast | Black Tea - Harney & Sons Fine Teas
The best way I can describe this is that it tastes like drinking blueberry muffin- even more so with milk added!
Blueberry Acai - The Tea Spot
Helps with weight loss and aids the digestive tract.
Ginseng Tea
This tea is good for stress relief and is usually drunk before bed.
Chamomile Teas - The Tea Spot
I recently learned that chai is just a spiced version of black tea. Still delicious though!
