Tea Beyond



My family are huge fans of brewing tea. In fact we have all but given up coffee in lieu of the many different kinds of tea available on the market today. I was more than thrilled when I was contacted to try some premium blooming tea samples as well as a glass diffused tea pot from Tea Beyond. Here is some information about Tea Beyond:

Tea Beyond is very passionate about helping people stay healthier and happier by offering tea products with premium quality and enhancing tea drinking experiences with stylish tea-wares. They invest in product research and development from materials, taste, colors to aroma, feature and styles. All of their products are made from materials sourced directly from nature, no artificial materials added. We follow our sustainable business philosophy by reducing carbon footprints.

They are a big believers in natural products and support a philosophy of responsible business practices. All of their products are made of materials sourced directly from nature. No artificial ingredients are used. To foster a sustainable business model they recycle all packaging and limit the amount of printed materials.

Tea Beyond, the expanding international tea company, started its tea journey as a result of the fact that they could not find high quality tea available in the market. Their mission is to enhance the tea drinking experience, healthy and happy lifestyle by offering the most exclusive and best quality authentic international teas and tea-wares to our customers.

Premium Blooming Tea: 

Blooming tea takes its inspiration from a complaint that women and men could not share the same pot of tea at a tea house. In traditional China, women like herbal teas, such as rose buds, jasmine flowers, while men love loose tea leaves. The solution was to sew tea leaves with freshly dried flowers in an artful way so that men and women can enjoy the same pot of tea - Blooming tea was born! Premium Blooming Tea, is made of only the premium quality Silver needle green tea leaves (single buds) hand selected and sewed by tea masters, with freshly dried flowers to create the best presentation.

My Review: 

I was more than thrilled when I received my glass infused tea pot. It was simply beautiful and handles about 4 cups of hot tea. Don't let the glass fool you. It is hardy enough to handle boiling water straight from your stove top. You simply add the water into the base of the tea pot, then add your favorite blend of loose tea leaves or a Premium Blooming Tea to the diffuser. Simply lower that into the hot water and wait the appropriate amount of time for the brewing to take place.



The Premium Blooming Teas take a bit longer to steep, you simply wait until the Blooming Tea unfolds. You need to keep about 30% of the water in the tea pot each time if you plan of refilling it. When refilling water, lean the pot to 70 degree angle and them add water gently along the glass wall. Avoid any directly pouring boiling water on flowers.



I received quite the sample of Premium Blooming Teas to try along with some loose tea leaves from Black Tea with Caramel to a Green Jasmine Tea. I have to be  honest and say I love the Black Tea with Caramel the best and my daughters both love the Premium Blooming Teas. There are Jasmine, Carnation, Marigold, Peony and a melody of Jasmine, Marigold and globe Amarath to try. All are low caffeine content and simply taste great whether you love them hot or cold. For me, this will remain a long time favorite for my household and why I would strongly give this company a 5 out of 5 stars. Not only do they make an incredible product but I love that they remain environmental conscience as well! I received the Tea Beyond Butterfly Tea pot and Tea Beyond Tea Combo compliments of Tea Beyond for my honest review of their product. I did not receive any monetary compensation for a favorable review. If you love tea as much as I do, I strongly suggest you take a look at this company.

Cafè Escapes - Product Review


What is your favorite way to escape? Some would say to fly away to a deserted island or simply a chance to do nothing all day, however few of us actually can do this. I've come across a simply easy way to take a break in the middle of a busy day, and incorporate something soothing such as a nice hot beverage and dessert all in one.
Introducing, Cafè Escapes for your Keurig!!! There are six different varieties to choose from, Chai Latte, Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa, Dark Chocolate Cocoa, Cafè Vanilla, Cafè Caramel or Cafè Mocha. These are best enjoyed when brewing in your Keurig using the 8oz option, but since I love a larger cup of anything, I opted for the larger cup. The best part is that they are only 70 calories of warm liquid enjoyment.
You can find these at your local retail stores or grocery stores everywhere and you can learn more online at CafeEscapes.com, GreenMountainCoffee.com and Keurig.com.
Since this arrived in the mail yesterday, we were anxious to try them and each member of my family grabbed their favorite. I opted for the Cafè Caramel, my hubby opted for the Cafè Mocha, and my youngest took the Milk Chocolate Hot Cocoa. Since the Keurig makes it so easy to make all these with little fuss, it was fun to sample them all. My daughter commented that the Milk Chocolate tasted so creamy that it seemed like it was made with hot milk instead of simply the hot water in the Keurig machine! She gives it a thumbs up and when I asked her to rate it on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the highest, she gave it an 11!
My opinion of the Cafè Caramel was simply delicious. Besides the enticing aroma that smells delicious, the flavor was buttery and sweet just like I had personally melted caramels right into a hot cup of coffee. My rating a perfect 10!
Hubby tried the Cafè Mocha and said it was fine but preferred his traditional white chocolate blend over all. He commented that it was a bit bitter, but remedied that with a touch of sugar in his cup!
Over all, my family gives this a wonderful rating and since we are out of our samples, we will be using our $2.00 off coupons to pick up our favorites! With snow coming this weekend, I can't think of a better way to spend a little family time together with our favorite hot beverages!! It truly is like drinking your favorite dessert in a cup!

I received Cafè Escapes compliments of BzzAgent for my honest review and have already restocked my pantry with our favorites. These hands down for my family rate a perfect 5 out of 5 stars in our book!
