What’s in your cup?

A companion thread to What's on your plate? 

I thought it would fun to share what we’re all drinking. It could be your favourite tea or show of your crowd pleasing cocktail recipes. What’s in your cup?

Right now, I’m enjoying a nice cup of ginger peach tea with milk and honey. It’s nice and calming before bed.

And shout out to the original thread  I kinda found out too late about this and it’s been far too long since it was updated.

Iced Matcha Latte 😋💚

Fun Fact! Did you know matcha and green tea is really good for your skin? 😮

[peculiarzmakeup]

Wow that looks so delicious! Do you ever have it with whipped cream? Matcha is so tasty and I did not know that about the effects on the skin! Such a neat fact 💚 @ChickenGurlie 

[CynthieLu]

Sounds yummy @ChickenGurlie and skin care benefits too? That's not bad at all.😉

[caitbird]

@ChickenGurlie  sounds delicious! And how great that it has skincare benefits too! Hope you enjoyed it!

I have been trying to drink more tea lately, so here are some of my recent tea-ventures 😅🍵

[itsfi]

I love tea @caitbird! 🫖 I spy Harney & Sons Paris and The Republic of Tea Ginger Peach. Both of those are among my faves. ♥️

This tea collage is so beautiful I love how you’re able to see the commitment to a tea routine through each photo. Those mugs are just to cute! I’m glad your enjoying your tea days 🙂 @caitbird

@caitbird I am a tea lover also.  (But not as adventurous as you are)

[CynthieLu]

You have so many cute mugs! @caitbird 🍵 ☕ 

What's a favorite recent tea discovery from your tea-ventures?

[caitbird]

@CynthieLu  thank you! My favorites from this batch were not really new discoveries but rather rediscoveries: The Republic of Tea Pumpkin Spice and Harney & Sons Hot Cinnamon Sunset are two favorites of mine that are perfect for fall. I hadn't had them in a while and had forgotten how much I like them. I am planning to stock up on more of both with my next orders.

[CynthieLu]

They both sound so good for fall 🍂 🍁 @caitbird 

Ooh Hot Cinnamon Sunset sounds very intriguing. ☕

Last night's cup of tea, and this morning's tea.

The Republic of Tea Beauty Sleep chamomile rose herbal tea with a little white honey. A calming treat before bed.

The Republic of Tea honey ginseng green tea with a little Savannah Bee Company honey. A nice morning pick me up.

Where did you get your adorable sloth mug?!

@ChristineR07  thank you, it was actually a gift from my dad, I think he got it at TJ Maxx?

Coffee, Tea & Juices: Costa Rica 2024

[caitbird]

@itsfi  ooh, what's in your cup: the Costa Rica edition! Those juices look delicious, and I bet the coffee was exceptional too. Did you have a favorite drink that you had while you were there?

[itsfi]

@caitbird, my favorite drink was the homemade tea I had at the spa - last two pics. It was great before and after my massage but what a pleasant surpise to have it as a treat while reading on the patio (the large pic) - I had mentioned how much I loved the tea and late afternoon the day before I flew home they surprised me by bringing a freshly brewed pot of tea to my room. Oh my goodness! What a truly lovely surprise. 

[caitbird]

@itsfi  that sounds wonderful! How nice of them to surprise you with some tea after you mentioned you enjoyed it. Sounds like the place you were staying was really nice!

[blackkitty2014]

Ah these drinks look great @itsfi . The coffee cup looks divine 🥰

[itsfi]

@blackkitty2014, thank you. Coffee in a cute sloth mug is a winning combo. ☕
