Bluebird Tea – Gingerbread Chai

Hiya everyone! Today I got my first Bluebird order: Gingerbread Chai! I went for this particular tea as the blend of it sounded absolutely heavenly. I decided to order as when I was in their Tunbridge Wells shop, I purchased ‘Dozy Girl’ which was amazing! Anyway, I got a scratchcard from them, and won a free pack of tea; which is this order! This came as a 20g sample which retails at £3.00, not bad for some free tea!

Look at my cute little package of goodies!

I’m actually so thankful it came today, as I’ve had really severe cramps all day, and needed a little pick me up! When the parcel arrived, it was quite small and compact, so perfect for going straight through the letterbox. Anyway, I only expected the tea and some tea infuser bags to be in there, but there was so much more. It was like a beautiful little gift pack, full of little treats and such! It came with a flyer for one of their other blends of tea: ‘Morning Kick’, which looks amazing. Also, it came with two free samples of ‘Morning Kick’ and ‘Earl Grey Creme’, how kind of them! Not only did it contain samples, but it also had some extremely cute recipes for my ‘Gingerbread Chai’ tea to be used in. These looked amazing, and very sleek! I’ll definitely be trying these! Finally, it also came with a lovely thank you note for ordering, honestly amazing customer service!

So, on to the tea! When I opened the packet, I was hit with the pleasant aroma of the blend; extremely refreshing! I popped some of the loose tea into the bag, and brewed it for around 3 minutes. After that, I tasted it and oh my goshhhhh, DELIGHTFUL! I can’t believe how tasty it is! It’s a little spicy at first because of the ginger, but the aftertaste is wonderful. It’s really sort of creamy and sweet! I honestly have fallen in love with this tea!

To all of my readers, definitely get yourselves down to Bluebird Tea! They take such good care of their customers, and have amazing and wonderful products!

Bluebird Tea – Dozy Girl

Hiya everyone! Now that I’m feeling super refreshed after a well deserved break, I’d like to share this absolute gem! I stumbled upon this company by chance when I was in Tunbridge Wells visiting a friend. It’s a specialist tea by The Bluebird Tea Company. It’s called ‘Dozy Girl’ and I got a pack of 15 tea bags for £5.20. 

The packaging is also fully biodegradable, so this company really does care about the environment. That is a huge bonus in my books! The tea bags which have been used are the fancy pyramid tea bags, so they don’t go soggy and separate in the cup. This also enhances the look of the tea overall, as it looks extremely elegant. When looking down into the mug, it looks like there’s a secret garden in your cup!

Please excuse my spoon!

So, I’m actually not a huge fan of the regular breakfast or earl grey teas, but I LOVE floral, herbal, and speciality teas! With me being very basic, my favourite is chamomile – and ‘Dozy Girl’ is a perfectly blended version of this! It’s blended to perfection using: Chamomile, Lemon Verbena, Hibiscus, Rose petals, and Lavender. I was a bit sceptical at first as I’ve never really been a huge fan of lavender. However, it really tastes amazing, you can’t really taste the lavender. All of these wonderful ingredients truly are perfectly blended to really enhance your regular cup of chamomile tea! This tea is also very calming, it’s so soothing and it’s good before bed – it’s really helped me sleep!

Overall, it’s a great cup of tea! I’ve already recommended this to my friends, and have gone on to purchase more teas from them. So, if you happen to stumble across one of their stores like I did, please go in! I’ve also noticed they ship worldwide, so go and look on their site!
