Hot tea is often overlooked for coffee in a popularity contest. Given the choice I would always choose tea as long as someone else is preparing and serving it. I love the tea pot, the lumps of sugar and all the girlie aspects of hot tea. It has more drama than a cup of coffee, and some may say I like the drama.
I discovered the most beautiful, floral, entertaining and dramatic hot tea blossoms. These make traditional tea bags seem boring and wrong. RariTies crafts delicate white tea leaves around a dried floral bouquet that comes to life when hot water is added. After the water is added to your clear glass pot or large glass brewing container, the bulb expands and blooms showcasing the inner flower. This makes for a conversation centerpiece at your table or buffet.
The white tea itself brews to a light, pale amber and has a smooth and simple flavor. The varieties of leaves and blooms provide different aromas and colors. They are soothing, gorgeous and so very girlie.
At such a reasonable price point these make a delightful gift for teachers, moms and special ladies in your life. The teas are offered in sets and have more impact than that silly old Mr. Coffee on your kitchen counter. I encourage you to give them a try.

I think this is the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while. What a great idea for teacher gifts. Something very unique! I’ve bookmarked it so I can remember.
