I am currently straddling two camps – coffee or tea. This is in part to the Bluebird Tea Company who have created delicious and interesting blends to rival the staunchest of coffee drinkers – me. I am nearly tipping over. The Pumpkin Spiced Latte and Bonfire Tea are delicious and perfect for the impending Halloween and Bonfire celebrations over the next couple of weeks.
Bluebird Tea Company that was set up Mike and Krisi, a couple from Brighton. After working in the tea industry (Krisi) and bumming (in his own words) around as a ski instructor (Mike) they both became incredibly passionate about how fun, innovative and versatile tea could be. They knew there was a gap in the market for a top quality, young, fresh tea company that could create fabulous flavours of loose teas that were fun, tasty and affordable.
Rather than selling straight teas such as darjeeling or Assam, they take teas and create exciting flavours by mixing them with a wide range of blending ingredients including herbs, flowers, fruits, caramels, chocoate and even cake sprinkles! They take popular tea and build up ingredients to create unique flavours.
Peppermint – MojiTEA
Chai – Coco Chai No. 5
Lapsang – Bonfire Toffee.
I have tried the Bonfire Toffee and am stocking up the cupboard in time for Bonfire Night.
Spiced Pumpkin Pie is delicious and perfect to serve up on Halloween.
If you really want to impress The Pumpkin Spiced Latte Kit will convert you to tea latte’s forever. Here is a video to show you how to make it.
If Halloween and Bonfire Night aren’t your bag – their Christmas selection is out now, with gorgeous hampers, including a cocktail tea making kit. Now that is cool and a great way to get Granny off her PG Tips!
