I do like to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee every once and a while. What I do not like about coffee though is the jittery feeling that I get after drinking. This is the reason that I am not your typical a.m. coffee drinker. I have found something else that I have started becoming an a.m. drinker of, Teavana!
I stumbled upon this gourmet tea store 2 weekends ago at the mall. They were sampling teas and I liked what I tasted and saw. I have always enjoyed my occasional herbal tea, my favorite flavor was the orange spice. This little nook of tea heaven I could get lost in. I loved reading all the nutrition facts, and the different mixes that they have. They can custom make the mix you want. I got two different mixes combined together to form my morning tea. I did the samurai chai mate, and white Ayurvedic chai tea. Mate teas work as an appetite suppressant and they contain the same amount of caffeine as a cup of coffee without giving you the side effects. White teas are full of antioxidants and help build up your immune system. There are so many great benefits of drinking herbal tea, that I do not have the time to write about all of them. What does coffee do for you......hmmm jitters, stomach problems, and addiction. It's a no brainer, I love the flavor of the tea so its a win win for me!!!!
The Real Deal

The Real Deal
I got a bag of the German rock sugar to sweeten it. Since its a loose tea you need a strainer like the one in front. It's a basic one, they have all different types. I just place it into my cup of hot water to steep. The container in the back keeps the tea fresh and once it's empty you can take it back to the store and reuse it, pretty cool.
I love my new tea, below is their website if you want to check it out some more!
