Step into a cozy world of aroma, flavor, and wellness. In this hands-on version of “afternoon tea,” you’ll sip, blend, and discover the ancient art and modern magic of loose-leaf tea. Elizabeth will guide you through her favorite functional tea blends designed to boost your mood, calm your system, and nourish your body—with flavors so good you’ll forget they’re actually good for you. Learn how to source high-quality herbs and spices, which ingredients work best together for flavor and function, how to brew loose-leaf tea without the fuss or mess, and how to create your own chai latte masterpiece with plant-based milks. You’ll leave with a list of herbs used in class and their health properties, recipes, sources for purchasing ingredients, a mason jar full of each custom blend, and ready-to-go tea bags to make steeping at home simple and fun. Whether you’re a tea newbie or a seasoned sipper, this workshop is your invitation to slow down, connect, and savor the healing power of herbs in every cup.
