The weather in D.C. today is positively dreary, slushy, snowy, damp and cold. It's afternoons like these that I'm desperately in need of a warm cuppa.
Having married a Brit - there's plenty of passion for tea in this house, but it typically comes during a lazy weekend morning in a pot of asaam with milk and sugar.
For afternoons I want something a little more flowery and fragrant, but sometimes it's hard to try new teas. Nothing is worse than picking up a whole box only to try one cup and pitch the whole thing out - I'm looking at you Tazo Vanilla Rooibus.
So here are a few of my favorites, I hope you'll share some of yours to add some variety to my gray day tea time.
Marco Polo by Mariage Fréres - Available at Dean and Deluca
Paris tea by Harney & Sons - available online from Harney & Sons
Numi Monkey King Jasmine Green Tea - available at most grocery stores
Tazo Joy Tea from Starbucks - I'm not sure if they still carry it :(
As mentioned in my gift guide - Aveda Comfort Tea - perfect before bed
One of my other favorite teas ever is the sadly discontinued Golden Honey Darjeeling from Celestial Seasonings, I managed to snag a case before they disappeared entirely and I'm still enjoying it.
So tea drinkers? Any favorites?
