Flash Post: Tea Party
What It Is: How much fun is it to walk into your local Loblaws or Superstore and know you’ve got gourmand goodies at your fingertips – at totally wallet-friendly prices? PC’s Black Label collection continues to delight me with their lineup of artisan Herbal Teas, available in four taste-packed varieties: Citrus Mint, Mixed Berry, Camomile Mint, and Jasmine Green Tea. Each one is loaded with naturally delicious ingredients like Thai lemongrass, mountain-grown spearmint, blue cornflower, and toasted green tea leaves for rich flavour any time of year. The packaging ups the style factor for gifting purposes as well: each box has a sleek, dramatic look and the actual tea bags are individually packaged and pyramid shaped for an extra touch of class. Before you go thinking tea season isn’t exactly upon us, lest I remind you of the summer-friendly uses for tea: how about freezing a pot full of Mixed Berry tea into ice pop moulds for a cool treat? Or create a tea-infused cocktail for your next gathering with a mix of spritzer, chilled tea, and vodka? And let’s not forget: we’ve got rainy, tea-warming days ahead of us whether we like it or not, so drink up!
Who It’s For: How about buying mom a special teapot for Mother’s Day along with a box or two to sample? Or gift your book club hostess with a box at your next meeting? You could even bring a box over to an ailing friend with the spring flu to soothe her back to health.
What It Costs: $5.99 a box.
Where It’s At: PC Black Label can be found at Loblaws® and Real Canadian Superstore®.
