A good iced tea has the same energy as a good summer book. Easy to settle into, refreshing, and something you want to spend time with. Some blends are especially good for slow afternoons outside.
BBQ season tends to bring out the same staples every summer. Burgers, grilled vegetables, smoky marinades, cold drinks, and long evenings outside. But tea deserves a place at the table too.
Father’s Day can be surprisingly difficult to shop for. Most dads tend to fall into one of two categories: either they already have everything they need, or they insist they don’t need anything at all. Which is why the best gifts are usually the ones that feel practical, thoughtful, and easy to enjoy in everyday life. Tea fits that surprisingly well.
Spring in Banff feels so exciting. One warm weekend and suddenly everyone’s outside again. Road trips start back up, hiking boots come out of storage, and patios fill up the second the sun appears. Even a quick drive through the mountains starts to feel like an event this time of year.
And if there’s one thing that makes those spring outings even better, it’s bringing good tea along with you. At least that’s my go-to. Some teas just feel made for mountain days.
