Birds and Bees Teas – Easy Naps & Calm Nights Blend
Organic Herbal Teas – What to Sip While Nesting
Now some of the Southerners reading this blog may think this is crazy, but I like to drink my tea lukewarm with lemon or lime. Yes. No sugar. Not cold. It wasn’t until I moved to Fayetteville, North Carolina in my early twenties that I even knew how sweet tea could be…and I said…UGH. Not for me! Now (to quote Seinfeld) ‘not that there is anything wrong with that’, but how you like your tea seems to vary as much as how you like your hair style. However, no matter how you like your tea, it is quite an important drink in America, well, in the world, really! It is also a VERY important drink in our family. Bob drinks his tea Southern style, I drink mine Yankee style and Brooke likes her tea either way! Perhaps Brie will finally be our tie breaker when she gets older!
Teas vs Tisanes?
OK! Education time! Tea has traditionally been defined as a drink made from the dried leaves of the camellia sinensis (genus Camellia) plant. Tisanes are drinks made and drank in the same fashion as tea, but do not contain the camellia sinensis plant (instead containing things like dried flowers or fruits, etc.). This is confusing for most people except for admitted tea snobs, so you see a lot of tisanes on the market are labeled herbal tea. Confused? Don’t worry, you are not alone! Education lesson over.
We LOVE Easy Naps & Calm Nights Blend from Birds and Bees!
I agree with Birds and Bees Teas – that all families need this tea in the pantry! It’s safe even for toddlers and pregnant/postpartum ladies and has an herbal blend that encourages calmness and entices sleep. Feeling restless or overtired? This is PERFECT. It’s simple to make like any tea and if you fancy, you can make a sweet treat with honey and organic milk. The tea is LOOSE and each tin comes with a nice little reusable soak bag. If you love their teas, you can get a discount by buying in bulk. Right now you can get 10% off with the PROMO CODE: refill.

Psst! Check out their Family Immunity Tea Blend. Heavenly! Although not suggested, I like boiling this blend since it also makes the house smell delicious (it has cinnamon in it.)
