It’s a wonderful New Year and National Hot Tea month to boot!

Right now where I live the winter weather in full swing, so it’s the most perfect time to snuggle up with the perfect cup of tea, especially since it’s National Hot Tea Month. It may be cold and dreary outside, but the PERFECT cup of tea, will not only warm your insides, it will warm your heart and soul.

Also did you know that drinking three cups of black tea produces 5 x’s the amount of germ-fighting cells to fight viral infections and flu?  And with flu season taking its toll already this January, we certainly need all the help we can get, with fending off the flu. And if you’ve ever had the flu, you know how uncomfortable and difficult symptoms can be. But a cup or mug of hot tea helps soothe those difficult symptoms.

So stop whatever you’re doing and really drink that cup of tea!  I have a challenge for you – next time you make a cup of tea try to enjoy the entire process – the smell of the dry leaves as you take them out of your tin, the sound of the kettle as it boils, the aroma wafting from the brewing cup.   Just take the time and enjoy!

By the way… let me know what teas will be on your menu, this month.
