One thing anyone who’s ever eaten sushi with me knows… I hate ginger. Somehow it tastes like dish soap to me and I can never get passed it. I only use it in the most extreme of wasabi circumstances!

o… I’m obsessed. I had just returned from our tea expo adventures in Vegas to a room full of people watching Laker game #5 and I was more interested in what was in my bag than what was on the screen. I mean, come on, it was like Halloween for a tea lover; open up your bag and say treat!

This was the first tea I tried the next morning. I knew I should have been reading and writing but I could not help it. I reached in and grabbed

Village Tea’s Strawberry Passion White Tea.

It is with great sadness that we announce the temporary closing of the Village Tea Company store on Preston and Forest

The Village Tea Company store was introduced as a proof-of-concept store location allowing us to understand the appeal of a large scale tea company in Dallas.  We have learned that consumers not only want a [...]

Calling all tea lovers! I don’t need to tell you that there’s nothing more relaxing than a cup of hot tea and a book, right? We, at Celebrity Baby Scoop, recently had the opportunity to enjoy two very yummy loose leaf teas; Ginger, Orange & Ginseng Oolong and Sweet Grace Vanilla Rooibos, both from the Village Tea Co.
The Sweet Vanilla Grace features the South African rooibos flavor, is caffeine-free (perfect for someone with insomnia but still likes to have a cup of tee at bedtime, like me) and is anti-oxidant rich (I need all the anti-oxidants I can get). The Oolong tea is a duo of ginseng oolong and ginger orange oolong flavors (think fruit, floral and chocolate), and aids digestion support.

Village Tea Co. features 10 different varieties of tea, including black, green, oolong, rooibos and white, each offering different ways to contribute to your health and well-being. Other flavors such as Cherry Bloom, Strawberry Passion, and Organic Lemon Ginger sound equally tasty. Each tea is packed in 100% recycled and recyclable packaging that includes 3 cotton muslin bags for brewing for friends or just brewing for yourself.

As it turns out, there are a number of tea drinkers in Hollywood too. The Village Tea Co has quite a celeb mom following! Kourtney Kardashian loved the decaf flavors, Cherry Me Bloom Rooibos with Acai & Sweet Grace Vanilla Rooibos, during her Pregnancy and Jillian Barberie was really excited to have these teas served and presented in the giftbags of her babyshower! Add to that list: Rachel Griffiths, Kelly Rutherford, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kimora Lee Simmons, Ana Ortiz & Mira Sorvino, all Village Tea Co. sippers!

I recently met up with a friend for a little afternoon tea at the Village Tea Company. Located in the shopping center on the SW corner of Preston and Forest in Dallas, this quaint, calm, inviting escape from the hustle and bustle of the city (and dare I mention, the intensity of the Texas heat) is the perfect place for meetings, girls’ get-togethers, breakfast, lunch, or snack. It’s great for parents to “get away” and enjoy a break with friends as their children play in a little colorful tots corner nook in the cafe. Munch on pastries, salads, sandwiches or crepes – yes, you read it right – CREPES! Try a variety of different teas, hot or cold, including ginseng orange, smooth jasmine, and lady marmalade. They also have a separate menu for the kiddos. If you don’t live in Dallas, you can purchase their organic teas online.

Walker Tea Review- a tea blog with tea reviews and tea tastings. Operated by Jason Walker.

One of my favorite tea companies is Village Tea Co., you have read about them here on Love To Shop Mom before during the Holiday Gift Guide. If you want to read that post you can find it here. Village Tea Co. recently sent me theirTeaser Sampler Set and their Mobile Teapot for the purpose of this review.

The other day I received a wonderful box of ‘all things tea’ from the fab Village Tea Co. Among the goodies was this super-enticing Cherry Me Bloom Rooibos with Acai tea. I was very drawn to this blend to try first. I haven’t had many rooibos teas, at all, especially one that was cherry-flavored for that matter. The ingredients in the blend are as follows: South African Rooibos, sour cherry, lemon grass, flavor, acai, sunflower petals.Don’t the ingredients seem like they’ve been specially and specifically chosen? Like how the rooibos is from South Africa. I also think everything sounds exotic and lovely with the lemon grass and sunflower petals. Reminds me of some imaginary garden in Shangri-La

Have you ever let a bag of tea sit in your cup for an extended period time? The flavor can get pretty concentrated, sometimes even bitter, right? This has happened to me with green tea and especially black teas. I usually have to steep for the recommended amount of time that is stated on the bag if I want the tea to taste palatable. I’ve found that with Village Tea Co.’s Royal English Breakfast Tea, I can really let the tea steep and steep and the tea never has that bitter taste! It may be “dark and delicious, brisk and bold,” but at the same time, it still tastes yummy and mellow to me.

Who knew tea could be so stylish? The Village Tea Company offers luxury quality tea at an affordable price. From its packaging to its exotic flavors, this is the must-try brand for tea lovers.

WHEN SOMEONE ASKS me what kind of hot tea I’d like to drink, my answer is always the same. Red. I don’t mind black, and I actually love a lot of green teas. But red rooibos teasan is by far my favorite, especially when it’s ultra-fresh, full leaf — like Village Tea Company’s Cherry Me Bloom Rooibos, a blend of red that includes acai, sour cherry, lemon grass and sunflower petals.

When people see the CaffiNation they assume I only drink Coffee. I love coffee, but I also tend to drink my fair share of tea as well. Not only do I enjoy a good cup of tea i think bad tea is worse by far than bad coffee.

I was approached about reviewing the Village Tea Company’s Rooibos. Specifically the Cherry Me Bloom Rooibos with Acai. First order of business with anything new is to check up on what all the fun words mean and apparently this tea like so many others is full of antioxidants and other bits of healthy goodness. Selling points of health marketing aside I wanted to know how it tastes!
