One of my favorite tasks for spring is organizing get-togethers with my near and dear ones. This year, I plan to have a tea party for my besties at my place. My friends and I are tea lovers (as you would have guessed) and will meet each other after over a year.
Needless to say, I am looking forward to meeting my friends (Rokia, Mariam, Ashley, Sali, and Alice), and the timing is just perfect. Our love for a perfectly blended cup of tea makes us all peas in the same pod.
I have shortlisted the following ingredients for the perfect brew this spring.
Hibiscus: Hydrating & Refreshing Teas
I love all the spring colors, such as lilacs, lavenders, fresh greens, white or sunny yellows. I prefer to add to those colors with the help of my teas for the extra festive feel. The deep reds of my hibiscus tea do exactly that for all my spring gatherings and parties. 🌺
Rich in Vitamin C and known as an immunity booster, this drink helps adjust to the changing weather. It has antioxidant properties and is a good choice for health-conscious tea drinkers. It is naturally caffeine-free and is a good option to wind down without losing sleep after a long spring day.
Hibiscus tea is known for its tart, fruity flavor reminiscent of cranberries or pomegranates. The tartness makes it an incredibly refreshing beverage when served chilled, as is needed on a sunny spring day!
Moringa: Miracle Teas
Miracles can be found anywhere, but could they fit into a cup of tea? Yes, why not? That is indeed a miracle! 🙂
Rich in vitamins A and C, minerals, proteins, and antioxidants, Moringa is one of the most nutrient-dense plants on earth. No wonder it is called the Miracle Tree. Moringa leaves can be described as having an earthy flavor. Moringa is naturally caffeine-free and acts as a flavourful alternative to traditional teas.
Kinkeliba Leaves: Digestive Teas
We all love to declutter our home for spring cleaning. What if we could aid digestion in our body with an all-natural, caffeine-free drink?
Sourced directly from the organic farms in Côte d’Ivoire, these leaves are grown without pesticides, chemicals, or fertilizers. Kinkeliba Leaves Tea is non-GMO and naturally caffeine-free. Each packet is hand-packed by qualified workers and processed with utmost care. Kinkeliba leaf tea has hidden floral undertones and is best served in the morning or after meals.
Lemon Verbena: Sleep Inducing Teas
Are you a fan of sweet, fresh, lemony aromas? Delight yourself with a cup of Lemon verbena Tea. You will thank us later.
MAKOMAS Lemon Verbena Loose Teas is caffeine-free and can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Verbena is great for digestion. It is also a calming, stress-relieving, and a perfect pre-bedtime drink.
I keep imagining the day all of us will meet. I am super excited about the conversations we may have. All of us are passionate about nature and sustainable farming. Our interests overlap with each other. If I were to describe each of us as colors of the spring, I feel confident that the medley we create is no less a masterpiece.
And the same can be said about blending various ingredients to create new, flavorful, and delightful teas. And MAKOMAS offers just that. 🙂
