When celebrating mom, brewing Presence tea holds special meaning- celebrating her guiding presence in my life, and setting an intention to give her the gift of being fully present, in the moment, as we’re spending time together.

For a mocktail option, brew some iced tea and use it in place of the wine/champagne for an elevated Arnold Palmer, or use sparkling white grape juice for a fizzy treat.
