Here's Refreshing News ... June is National Iced Tea Month!

And we are ready to celebrate! What a fabulous beverage! We have everything you need to make the most of your iced tea celebration!

I know we have mentioned this before, but just to refresh your memory ... here are a few tips on how to brew the perfect cup:

Quick Brewing Instructions
To brew a quart, fill a tea filter/bag with 4 to 5 teaspoons of loose tea and place in a pitcher. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Pour the boiling water directly over the tea and steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove tea filter bags and then add 2 more cups of cold water. Serve over ice.

Sun Brewed Iced Tea
Fill a container with 4 cups of cold water. Place 6 teaspoons of loose leaf tea into a tea filter/bag and cover lightly. Place in direct sunlight for 2 to 4 hours (depending on desired strength). Remove bags and serve over ice.

Quench your summertime thirst with a tall, frosty glass of iced tea! Choose from 29 delicious blends - black, green, white, oolong and herbal:

If you are cold ... Tea will warm you!

Brrr... I just heard the weatherman predict 12 inches of snow by tomorrow! I love to see the flakes coming down and cover everything in a beautiful blanket of white, but I hate the cold! I get chilled to the bone and the high of 20 degrees just doesn't make me very happy! If you are anything like me ~ you need to wrap your hands around a nice, hot cup of tea!

A spoonful of leaves and some hot water ~ nothing can replace a cup of tea to warm you up. Mmm ... it warms you to your toes!

William Gladstone said it best back in 1865: “If you are cold, tea will warm you; if you are too heated, it will cool you; if you are depressed, it will cheer you; if you are excited, it will calm you.”

Try English Breakfast, Pomegranate Pear, Chamomile Citrus, Peppermint or another one of our 30 warm, delicious flavors!

Here's to being warm and cozy in January! ~ Amy

Happy New Year Tea with Great Friends and Fabulous Earl Grey Creme

What a delightful way to celebrate the new year! Relaxation, conversation and tea, of course.

I was invited to have tea with a beautiful friend of mine to celebrate the beginning of 2009! She delighted all of us with yummy scones served with lemon curd and homemade raspberry jam, carrot soup, sandwiches, tarts, chicken bites and lemon and chocolate squares. Everything was presented in such an elegant way and was received with such joy - simply melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

Then there was the most important element of High Tea ... the Tea itself! My personal favorite was the Earl Grey Creme - you can see the Steeped in Style tin in the picture! Steeped to perfection! Served in gorgeous teapots and cups and accompanied by sugar and milk ~ if you so desired.


Michele was a fabulous hostess! What a wonderful time with wonderful memories to cherish forever!

Why not host your own tea party! Lunch is too rushed, dinner is too formal ... tea is just right! Want to impress your friends? The High Tea Experience can't be beat. There is a reason High Tea has remained the Queen of Alternative Events for centuries. It is a great to way to relax and connect with friends. Sit back, savor the aroma and flavor of your favorite tea and enjoy yourself! You deserve it!

Brought to you by your friends at Steeped in Style Teas .. of course!

Cheers ~ Amy
