Anna Bean in Barberton, Iced vanilla Chai with sugar cookie cold foam.... best COLD FOAM!!!!

I was in Barberton the other day looking for some fun tea to try....


I found Anna Bean- an adorable old train station.



It is super adorable.  I think I heard it also used to be an ice cream place.  But, I am glad it now has tea, coffee, and some other baked goods....especially Macaroons!!!


They have a small selection of teas- Iced tea, Chai Tea, Matcha, Hibiscus, and green tea.






The macaroons were really very good.   The price was decent too.  I would get them again...I like that they are gluten free.  But, I have to remember that just because they are gluten free does not mean it is healthy, heeheee


I got the Iced Vanilla Chai with sugar cookie Cold foam.



The have a cute outdoor area and a spot for photos.  I likes this place.


This was a great chai.  The flavors were really nice.  The prices were decent too, drinks were not over $6.  The cold foam was great- I licked the sides of the cup clean.  The staff was friendly, the place was clean- not much indoor seating, but there was some outside.

Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all the peoples!

UPDATE- someone found me on the app for Anna Bean.  How fun is that...I had NO idea.








Journey in Time pop up, July 22, 2023



Time for another farmers market pop up.  I am excited to have a chance to set up and sell more tea.


Journey in Time is great place to find fun and unique items.  They have seasonal items for your home or to give as gifts.  They also have everyday decor, furniture, antiques, and all sorts of goodies.



I have my "tea gear" ready for the day.
I have my new latte art glasses, my tea earrings, and tea socks.


My car is jammed packed with tea items.  That is the one pain about a pop up- the loading and unloading of the tea items.  I hope maybe one day to have a trailer or something where everything can be stored.  But, for now I will load my car with tables, tea dispensers, jugs of tea and water, prize wheel, and all the other goodies for the day.


I am set  up beside a fellow Orrville graduate, my friend Seo.  She has the most incredible food.  I love her egg rolls!!!   


I got my tables set up.  The Journey in Time people were kind enough to let me be under their tent, and it ended up being a hot day, so that was great.


I did Passion Fruit bubble tea, Strawberry bubble tea, Hibiscus iced tea, and my Butterfly tea tea.  The butterfly pea tea is like an Arnold Palmer.  And when I add them lemonade to the tea it turns purple.  It is really pretty.


I have my teas for $5 a glass.  I also have my prize wheel with items people can win when they spin.


There was a very nice selection of vendors here this day.  Food, clothing, soaps, candles, tumblers, jewelry, etc. 


Some of my first customers were my friend Amy and her mom, Carol!!!  They got the Butterfly pea tea...Amy's favorite.


I also had my friend Megan stop by, as well as my friend Monica and her sister Marci.


At lunch I ordered some of Seo's food. It was all so very good.  The egg rolls I took home for lunch the next day.  She even has these great beepers.  So, I was able to wait at my tea table and then pop over to her truck when the food was ready.



I had some other fun visitors come by- Audrey of Audrey's Attic..who I used to work for.  Also, a former co-worker Margo and my mom.

On a side note- this was Audrey's first time ever having bubble tea.  She was a hoot!!  She said she thought it was called bubble tea, because of my bubbly personality, lol!!!  She was asking everyone around her if they had ever tried it.  She was so cute bursting those juice bubbles in her mouth.


I brought flowers from my garden to sit on my table too.


It was good day.  A long day, but a good day.  I love being able to share tea with people.
Keep me in mind if you have to have a tea bar at your next gathering.

Or if  you have some friends that want to drink tea or learn more about tea, I am happy to do a tea class for all of you.  I have lots of options.
