Do you have a tea ritual? A particular place or time you set aside to sip your favorite cup of tea? I never put much thought into it, because I have been enjoying tea for years and have developed a tea sipping routine. But, I definitely have a tea ritual! Every night, right before bedtime, I brew a cup of tea and take it upstairs to my bedroom. I set the tea cup on the nightstand, cover up with a soft blankie, grab the iPad and find an old movie (1940’s – 1960’s) to stream while sipping my warm cup of tea in bed. The sipping habit is a way to soothe away any leftover daily stress and helps relax me so I can drift off to dreamland. I am just about immune to any negative effects from caffeine from years of drinking it; therefore any caffeine in the tea normally does not keep me awake. My mother use to give me tea when I was sick as a little girl and now I have developed into using it as a means of comforting me nightly.
Last year for the first time I had the opportunity to sample Mighty Leaf Tea and try their amazing Tea Top brew mug. I have been an enormous fan of the company ever since! Why? Because Might Leaf Tea is all-natural, absolutely delicious and the tea comes in these completely unique artisan Tea Pouches made of unbleached cotton that is hand-stiched.
Mighty Leaf recently contacted me to see if I would be interested in helping to spread the news about their Mighty Leaf Tea and Taste Giveaway and sent me a fantastic gift pack (one of my readers will get one too) containing a Mighty Lea World Flavors Sampler and Tea Top commuter brew mug.

About the Mighty Leaf Tea Gift Pack
Mighty Leaf World Flavors Sampler
Let the aroma of ginger transport you to India. Inhale White Orchard and dream of China, the home of white tea. Ginger Twist is a soothing brew of ginseng, ginger, lemongrass and licorice. White Orchard blends mouthwatering fruits of melon and peach with pure China white tea. Savor the clean notes of mint in basil in Organic Detox Infusion. Includes 15 pouches of each.
Mighty Leaf TeaTop Brew Mug
Give up to-go cups and steep tea pouches in our commuter brew mug. Say goodbye to over-steeped tea and messy pouches. The used tea pouch nestles inside the lid.
The teas are very delicious and I love how I can see the whole leaf tea, blossoms, herbs, spices, and bits of fruit through the delicate looking tea bags. My favorite among the three teas is the Ginger Twist. The Lemongrass tea has just the right amount of ginger with a hint of mint, licorice, and ginseng and contains bits of apple, orange, and papaya. Normally, teas with ginger can be overwhelming, but this one is extremely favorable and enjoyable. YUM!
Both the Mighty Leaf World Flavors Sampler and Tea Top Brew Mug would make a thoughtful gift for mom this Mother’s Day!

Putting the kettle on while I take the dog out and by the time I get in it’s finished. I don’t really have a ritual.

(Commenting on the review) ~~ Hot tea is my “coffee” in the mornings. I love Green Tea with some honey and lemon. I also enjoy some of the flavored teas such as Raspberry and Peach. I haven’t tried Mighty Leaf as I wasn’t aware of them, but I am intrigued by their line of products!
