Pyramid Tea Tuesday

This morning I'm drinking
Bavarian Wild Berry
by Lipton.

It is made with long leaf black tea, dried apples, rose hips,
chicory, cinnamon, licorice, dried blackberry,
dried currant, ginger root, orange peel, dried blueberry,
and dried raspberry.

Whew!
All of that in one little package.
I mean you can see the little pieces of
dried fruit in the pyramid tea bag.
Aren't they the cutest!
When you pour the hot water over the pyramid,
the aroma is just wonderful!

This is the table
beside my comfy chair
where I usually have my tea
in the mornings.
After daylight
I switch to iced tea or iced water
both with lemon.
 

There are always books on my table,
and some other favorite things nearby as well.
The things on my table are ever changing,
but I always surround myself with things I love.

Do you have a special little nesting area?


This is my new tea mug
that I picked up on my trip to Dallas.
It reminds me every morning
to count my blessings,
to be joyful always,
and to....

Savor the Day!

Your tea sounds heavenly. What's not to love if it has blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and cinnamon. The other ingredients are simply wonderful extras.

What an adorable mug. The leaves on the handle are adorable, too. It looks great in your nesting area. Sadly, I don't have one of those, but "nest" in whatever room I decide to make art that day.

Have a great T today.

I am usually at my desk having my tea, but if I could snuggle in it would be on my bed with lots of pillow under the covers with my doxies!!

I just love to learn a little bit about my friends - we are all connected somehow with our similar routines and the way we look at life - from our tea all the way down to counting blessings :) (I love the mug!)

Happy T today!!! Kimmie

I love joyful thoughts and the tea cup is totally perfect for our long distant tea rituals. Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart

Your tea sounds simply delicious! One of my favourite spots for tea is outside at my little table, but it was pouring rain today, so I curled up with my book on the couch :)

Yvonne, your description of the Wildberry Tea makes me think I should hop to the store and pick some up. I love berry tea. Also nice to know the cool-aberration continues!

The only type of tea I have in the summer when it's hot is of the iced variety, preferably with lemon. In the winter, I love my afternoon tea and coffee in the mornings.

Oh love your cup! Yes, yes, be joyous always! So glad I stopped by for tea. **blows kisses** Deb

I keep returning to this particular Tea on Tuesday post. This Bavarian Wild Berry seems so exotic...especially for a Lipton tea! It sounds sooooo delish...I have hunted high and low for it and can't seem to find it in my neck of the woods! Are you getting it in a specialty store? I see it was featured in your most recent T on T post with agave nectar!

Yvonne said...

Dotti, most of my tea I buy at Walmart, HEB or Sun Harvest. Sometimes I pick up speciality teas at places I visit, but I th ink this one by Lipton came from Walmart. Hope you find it. If not I will send you some if you would like to try it. Let me know okay.
