Damtuh Tea

I saw this tea on line and thought I would give it a try. It is from Korea and I recently have eaten Korean and had a great Barley tea...and this company had a barley tea.  Plus if you ordered $29 shipping was free, AND if you ordered $30 you got a free tote bag!  WIN, WIN, WIN!

I first tried the peach tea it was fantastic!!  Some of the best, truest peach flavor I have ever had.

A 20-count box of Lemon Iced Tea Individual Packets is included, each containing fine black tea with added lemon extract and xylose sugar - a natural sugar found in wood - and no caramel pigment. Easy stick packet opening makes it convenient to enjoy.

Peach concentrate juice power, black tea extract powder, sugar, xylitol, citric acid, xylitose

I made the barley tea and it was just as I remembered.  It is somewhat nutty and has a craveable flavor that is hard to explain.

Then I did some instant teas that were fun and different.  They had things added to them- like chopped nuts or dates.

Ginger Powder Tea

Ginger Powder Tea is a comforting and invigorating herbal infusion created from the powdered form of the ginger root. This tea offers a unique, zesty flavor and a host of potential health benefits, making it a popular choice for those who seek both taste and wellness in their daily brew.

Jujube Powder Tea is a wholesome and naturally sweet herbal infusion made from the powdered form of the jujube fruit, also known as red dates. This tea offers a unique, sweet flavor and a range of potential health benefits, making it a cherished choice for those who appreciate both taste and well-being in their daily brew.

Han-cha is a traditional Korean herbal tea with a history that spans thousands of years. This earthy, oriental beverage has been used as an energizing remedy for exhaustion, lethargy and colds. Damtuh adds an extra boost of jujube concentrate and various nuts to Han-cha for an increased health benefit and immunity support.

Grapefruit Kombucha

This is so fun and unique tasting.  It has an almost fizzy taste to it.   The flavor is good too.

My favorite flavor is the Muscat one.  It is like grape juice with a kick.

Muscat Kumbucha

Tantalizing and delightfully sweet, Shine Muscat grape juice powder is a unique Netherlands Kombucha with zero sugar and low calorie content. Support your health with 19 types of lactic acid bacteria plus vitamin C.

  

If you are ever looking for some fun teas to try, I highly recommend Damtuh Tea from Korea.

Brewed Awakening - Vermilion Oh

When in Vermilion, you know I am headed to Brewed Awakening!!

I was in Vermilion for two days and I visited them twice!  The funny thing was I had enough points from visiting in the past that one of my drinks was free.

I ordered the Blackberry Lavender as my free drink and it was fantastic!!

It was blackberry, lavender, lemonade, with green pomegranate tea- then there are real black berries added.

I also then ordered a lavender matcha.  It was really good - they always seem to nail the flavors.

There is plenty of seating inside.  They have a great selection of drinks and food too.

While there I got a Brie Cheese Panini for dinner.  It was incredible!!  Brie cheese, raspberry preserves, with ham, arugula, and an olive oil glaze.

 It was a beautiful day so I walked around the town a bit.  Vermilion is so quaint and adorable!  Did you know that Vermilion had a light house?  It does!

I then headed to Beulah Beach, the reason I was in Vermilion.  Once a year in May they have their benefit auction to raise money for projects around the camp.  I believe it has been going on for about 15 years- I have only missed 2 of the auctions.  I just love coming up and seeing people and giving where I can.

Saturday, I then went back for lunch and brought my friends some drinks too.

I got the iced tea,  one person got the matcha, one a bubble tea, and one the lavender  blackberry tea.

I love these gals.  We have spent over 30 years growing our friendship.  We have the bond of Jesus that holds us together.  I even was the camp counselor for two of them when they were in high school. 

                                                        

All drinks were 5 tea cup worthy!!  The staff is friendly, the prices are decent, and the flavors are always phenomenal. 

 

Birthday Tea party

I did a surprise birthday party tea.

A coworker asked to do a tea for her sisters birthday.  It was a another friends home.

The friend's home the birthday tea was at also does catering, so the food was VERY WELL DONE!!!

You were not going away hungry from this party!

I did 5 teas that day.

When I do a tea, I give everyone a sheet of paper at the end telling them what teas I used for the party incase they want to purchase the teas later.  I do not sell teas at the party- I just share teas I like.

I do ask people to let me know if they have allergies, so we can check to be sure none of those ingredients are in the tea as well.

Bird & Blend, Mulled Cider (Herbal Tea) Apple pieces, ginger, rosehips, hibiscus, cinnamon, cloves, lemon peel, and flavoring.

Ohio Tea Company, Mango Sencha (Green Tea) Sencha green tea, mango flower, and sunflower blossoms.

Ohio Tea Company, Love Potion #9 (Black Teas) Chinese and Ceylon (Sri Lanka) black teas, ginger, raspberries, rosehips, cacao shells, candy hearts, and flavoring.

Ohio Tea Company, Alexis Blueberry (White Tea) White tea from China, blueberries, and blueberry flavoring

 The Tea Spot, Coconut Cabana (Oolong tea) Oolong tea, shaved coconut, coconut and vanilla flavoring.

These are not your typical tea items, but they were very good!!!  This was more of a meal then just an afternoon tea with light foods.

There were 9 ladies there...all in hats and dressed for a party.

Since this was a friends and former coworkers home... I had to have a little fun. While they were eating and out of the kitchen I had some time to place some fun items in the kitchen. I had some googly eyes that I put on some planters.

But, don't think your party has to be this fancy.  You're party can be causal or fancy.  It can have food or only be educational tea facts with fun tea tastings.  You can be in your home or rent a space somewhere.  You can do hot teas or iced teas or a mix.  I can suit the tea to meet your needs.

There was lots of laughter around the table and they all had a great time.

The tea was very well received too.

Here I am giving some fun tea facts!
