Summary

Floral Sonnets is a symphony of flavors, each sip revealing new notes. At its heart, chamomile and lavender provide a high floral baseline, harmoniously intertwined with the warmth of honeybush and the subtle spice of cassia. The inclusion of damiana adds an intriguing herbal undertone, while ginger offers a comforting warmth, rounding out the blend. This tea is caffeine-free, making it perfect for evening relaxation or a soothing pause in an otherwise hectic day.

History

Floral Sonnets isn't just a tea; it's a poetic journey through gardens of history. This blend, with its roots in the traditional use of chamomile and lavender, harks back to ancient civilizations where these herbs were not just for sipping but were integral to ceremonies and medicine. Chamomile, revered by the Egyptians for its healing properties, and lavender, used by the Romans to scent their baths, converge in this blend to offer a sip of history. Each ingredient, from the honeybush of South Africa to the spicy undertones of ginger, carries its own historical baggage, making every cup a multicultural narrative.

Why We Love It

We adore Floral Sonnets for its complex character that comforts and intrigues in equal measure. It's like a warm blanket on a chilly evening or a cool breeze on a sweltering day. The floral notes of chamomile and lavender lift the spirit, while the ginger and cassia ignite a gentle warmth within. It's our go-to for winding down, perfect for those moments when only a cup of tea and a good book will do.

The More You Know

This tea makes a delicious golden milk. Simply add 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric and 1 tablespoon of Floral Sonnets tea to 8 ounces of boiling milk of choice. Let it steep 5 minutes, then strain for a quick and relaxing tea that smells like a meadow.
