The perfect cups of tea for any time of day
Tea is a delicious beverage that you can enjoy at any time of the day. Whether you're waking up in the morning, want to relax in the afternoon, or wind down in the evening, there's always a type of tea that perfectly suits the moment. But which teas are best for which moments? Additionally, you'll get tips on how to brew the perfect cup of tea.
Tea in the morning for an energetic start
In the morning, many people need a boost to wake up properly. A cup of black tea, such as our English Breakfast, Earl Grey, black tea with apricot and peach or Blue Earl Grey tea, is an excellent choice. Black tea contains caffeine, which helps you feel more alert and energetic.
Are you more of a latte fan in the morning and does coffee feel too heavy on your stomach? Then you can also opt for a Matcha Latte. This gives you an energetic boost without going into overdrive.
Afternoon tea for a moment of relaxation
In the afternoon, especially after lunch, a cup of green tea can be wonderful for relaxing and enjoying a moment to yourself. Green tea contains less caffeine than black tea but is packed with antioxidants that are good for your health. Green teas we offer include Sencha and Jasmine tea.
Evening tea for a good night's sleep
In the evening, before going to sleep, it is wise to drink caffeine-free tea. Herbal teas such as chamomile, lavender, or valerian are known for their calming and relaxing properties, which can contribute to a good night's sleep.
