Can a Tea Be Beautiful?

Well I did not think so until I found the coolest thing. You have got to see this. On my “Tea Journey”, I was digging through site after site, just browsing when I discovered flowering teas or ‘blooming teas’. They are really unusual and very beautiful. You put this little tea bud in your teapot or cup, add water. As the tea bud absorbs the water, it begins to turn into a gorgeous flower. They are called blooming teas, or display teas. They are not only gorgeous, they taste great too. How cool is that?

Tea for a Special Occasion

These teas would be wonderful for a special occasion. They look great in a large glass teapot as a centerpiece, or in a few glass teacups lined up in a row across a table. How about using them for a wedding? Of course, they can also be used for your own morning cup of tea. What a way to start the day. A wonderful cup of tea, a gorgeous flower, it is certain to put a smile on your face.

Tea As a Special Gift

The art of hand sewing tea leaves into flower blooms dates back centuries in Ancient China. These beautiful display teas are a delight for both your eyes and taste buds. They are mini floral bouquets that bloom when water is poured over them. They are created by skilled artists in China who hand tie jasmine scented Green tea leaves around a dried flower blossom. The results are small tea balls with a unique sweet scent and flavor. I would steep these in a glass pot in order to fully enjoy this tea. Blooming teas can be continually refreshed with more water as needed and will not get bitter with extended steeping. They make thoughtful gifts for the special people in your life.
