Break out the tall glasses and ice – June is Iced Tea Month! To help you celebrate, our Tea Sommelier, Alicja, is sharing her top five iced tea picks from the Shanti Collection.

Once considered a great rarity in the West, tea is now about as commonplace as earth or air. Like both, however, it has the ability to be ordinary and humdrum, or – as is the case with our artisanal Canadian tea company’s Wuyi Rock Oolong – to be rare, uplifting, and inspired.

Today chais are well-loved even by coffee drinkers, and most of the recipes mirror the ancient South Asian tradition of boiling milk and water with tea, spices, and sometimes sweeteners. Our Sita Chai can be made the same way, if you like, though it is good on it’s own as well. Either way, it is best drunk with a story, so sit back, relax, and rest your mind in the tales of Ancient India.

Matcha donuts! Tasty and fun to make!

Homemade granola is easy and delicious!

Matcha is wonderfully smooth, creamy, slightly sweet and grassy. It’s delicious in its pure form (with water) and it makes a stellar, even creamier tea latte.

Everybody's feeling a little Irish this month, why not enjoy an Irish cuppa?
