There are many different ways to enjoy the almost endless variety of teas available. Here are nine ideas for making the most of your teatime.<br><br>1. On the Road<br><br>If you're going to use that cup holder, you should consider a refreshing cup of tea in place of that same-old-same-old morning coffee and, certainly, instead of syrupy afternoon soft drinks. Experiment with different teas (hot or iced) on your daily commute — it won't make the trip any shorter, but it will be more enjoyable.<br><br>2. With Your Kids<br><br>Kids are always up for a party — and that can includes tea parties, too. Avoid caffeine with a kid-friendly tea like chamomile, and be sure you make enough for any extra dolls or teddy bears that might show up. With older kids, an invitation to a cup of tea and [https://www.bettingtop10.com/vi/w88/ w88] a snack can be a great conversation starter.<br><br>3. Outside<br><br>Whether it's a pick-me-up cup of black or oolong tea or a kick-back-and-relax honeybush tea, the natural ambiance of the outdoors can be the perfect complement to your brew. Sit in a quiet place where you can be alone with your thoughts, or plop yourself down in a bustling spot to people watch — either way, a little sun and fresh air will make a good cup of tea even better.<br><br>4. With the Queen<br><br>Okay, this one's going to be tough for everyone besides William and Harry. But even if you can't have tea with the Queen herself, you can have a British Afternoon Tea — traditionally served between four and five in the afternoon. The daily event usually calls for black tea served with milk (never cream).<br><br>5. At Mom's House<br><br>After all she's done for you, you really should spend more time with your mother. Maybe you can invite yourself over for a cup of tea. If you bring the tea and brew it, she'll probably think that all the trouble you gave her when you were a kid was worth it. Moms are like that.<br><br>6. With Friends<br><br>You know this one already. Food and drink shared with those you care about is always a sure-fire winner. Catch up with an old friend over a cup of tea and a sweet treat. (Serve his or her favorite tea for an extra-nice touch.) Or invite the whole gang and celebrate — or create — a special event with a full-fledged herbal tea party!<br><br>7. At Home<br><br>There's nothing like the comforts of home when returning from time away at a job, travel or even a hectic day of errands. For many of us, one of those comforts is a hot, delicious cup of tea. Make it a ritual to brew a cup of your favorite tea when you walk in the door. Then, cup in hand, take some time to appreciate being home.<br><br>8. Sipping an Old Favorite<br><br>Anyone who has found a tea they really enjoy, and found exactly how they like it brewed, truly knows how comforting tea can be. Brewing and sipping a favorite tea or tea blend is a familiar and pleasant ritual that you can enjoy whether you're recharging or winding down. It's a no-calorie, good-for-you comfort food!<br><br>9. Trying Something New<br><br>We're not going to use the word "adventure" here — it is, after all, tea. But it's fair to say you might enjoy discovering something "different" and even "surprising" by looking into the types of teas available and [https://www.w88hn.vip/ w88] trying some you haven't had before. Try the range of black to white teas, chai tea, and herbal teas to see what you like best.
