DIY Tea Advent Calendar

yeah thats what I prefer too but being pregnant I really try to stay away from caffeine- i drink a matcha latte every morning which is more than enough for a pregnant girl lol. it sucks because I’ve been going through tea companies and all the good holiday blends contain caffeine. I only have 4 more months to go though so…soon i won’t be as restricted thank God ha

I love mostly green tea, also drink white and herbal and some flavored black tea. I prefer light floral and fruity notes. I don’t like rooibos, sweeteners like Stevia (in lot of DavidsTea teas) and unflavored tea. :)

This is such a great idea and something I never would have thought of before. I’m getting to that point where I have way too much tea in my little apartment, so I think I’ll do this for a few friends and family members that I know enjoy tea, and maybe it will encourage them to try some new varieties, too. Thanks for the excellent idea!

My collection is predominately flavored tea (I love dessert-inspired blends!) with a variety of different bases (black, green, white, oolong, and herbal). I also have a fair amount of straight black tea. I’m not a big fan of puerh and dislike chamomile and hibiscus, but otherwise am open to trying pretty much anything!

Okay, here’s who I have on the participant list so far:

Tlovesgreentea
Inkling
MrQuackers
MAYA HU
Audrey
Sophia

Are all 6 of you still on board? Would anyone else like to join us? If so, please let us know by the end of the weekend! I’ll be pairing people up to swap on Monday. :)

Still on board!

Hi all! So here’s what I’m thinking as far as swap partners:

~ MrQuakers will swap with Tlovesgreentea
~ MAYA HU will swap with Tlovesgreentea
~ Audrey will swap with Tlovesgreentea
~ Sophia will swap with Inkling

A few reminders/suggestions:

~Please follow whoever you are swapping with so you can PM each other with addresses and any other pertinent information.

~The specific format of the advent calendar is up to you, but it should include 1-2 servings of loose leaf tea for each of the 24 days leading up to Christmas.

~Calendars should be mailed no later than November 15th to ensure delivery by December 1st, so we have about a month to put them together.

~ Please post on this thread when you mail your calendar(s) and when you receive the calendar(s) from your partner(s).

Thanks again to Tlovesgreentea for getting the ball rolling on the swap! This should be a lot of fun. :)

Yey! Thanks for your help, Inkling! I did follow all I’ll do swaps with, now waiting for them to follow me to get their likes and addresses. Ready to get started! :)
