Gifts reflect your relationship with the recipient: how well you know them, what aspect of their life you want to encourage, how much you care about them as well as how much time, money and effort you are willing to put into a purchase for them.
With all this in mind, and the rush to get it done before all the good stuff is gone, how do you choose unique, useful and special gifts that will be treasured?
Hopefully I can help. I’ve put together a list of useful, meaningful and downright fun gifts for the tea lovers in your life. Who knows, you might even find something you must have yourself!
- Chai Pilgrimage: For the Chai lover on your list – Author and Chai Wallah, Patrick Shaw, sent us a copy of this fun and inspiring book. I love the scrapbook layout, colorful images and tasty recipes. It’s as if you joined Patrick and his wife Jenny on their adventure through India in search of chai.
- Aiya Ceremonial Matcha gift set: Do you know someone who loves matcha tea or going to tea ceremonies? Add this little beauty to their tea paraphernalia and enjoy as they gain a new dimension to their tea enjoyment. They’ll probably even invite you to partake of the first tea ceremony they present.
- Teas for the heart: Pyramid tea bags in a heart shaped box is sure to capture your giftee’s attention. Offer this unique gift for the tea lover who likes to have good tea while showing their tea spirit.
- Digital Measuring Spoon: Loose leaf tea lovers will swoon over this advanced measuring spoon. Works for liquid or dry ingredients, reducing the number of gadgets necessary for all your infusing and cooking needs.
- Zojirushi Water Boiler: Wow! How many water heaters make different temperature water and will keep it warm for you? Boasting green tea in less than 2 minutes, this hybrid vacuum/electric technology is also energy efficient. Nice! I’m adding this to my holiday wish list.
- serendipiTea A Bouquet of Flowers Tea: I just love using tea tins, for me it elevates the tea preparation to the level of a ritual. This beautifully packaged assortment of floral tea and tisane blends will waft into the room as the recipient experiences the individual bouquet of each of the six included teas: Fu Man Chu, Lavender Fields, Mademoiselle Grey, Orchid, Really Goethe, Secret Garden.
Happy Holidays!
