Hi friends,
It's that time of year. Mornings are crisp, and the late-rising sun casts long orange rays. The leaves are starting to show their color. And you can find me with a warm, steaming cup of our organic Pumpkin Spice tea in my hands.
Don't get me wrong, mornings here are hectic. Getting the kids ready, making and packing breakfast and lunches, and getting out the door is a daily scramble. But in the middle of it all, with food cooking, one kid asking where her water bottle is and the other still in her PJs five minutes before we need to leave, I step outside with a hot mug of tea and the world pauses. And then I pause with it.
I breathe in the aroma and try to name each spice: cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, allspice, ginger, and the subtle hints of peppercorn. I let each one ground me. Then I sip, and the sweet pumpkin with creamy rooibos and black tea warms me from within. It takes maybe ten seconds, but it gives me an indulgent, quiet moment that brings focus and clarity to my morning.
I invite you to slow down with me for ten seconds each morning. Try naming the spices in your tea, and remember that we exist for more than our schedules and to-do lists.
These days I'm choosing our Pumpkin Spice with black tea in the mornings and the herbal version in the evenings. If you're not a pumpkin fan, our fall collection is full of other sweetly spiced teas.
But I'm telling you, this Pumpkin Spice is the best. There's nothing fake or artificial in it, only pure, organic ingredients. It's perfect on its own, but you can also try it as a latte: top it with warm milk of your choice and stir in a dollop of raw honey. This is fall decadence in a cup.
