Gift Guide for Tea Lovers

by Hannah Theisen Leave a Comment

Ah, the holidays. For conscious consumers, they can be quite a headache as we try to put together thoughtful gifts that don’t comprise our values. To help guide you through the season, I’ve put together this tea lovers gift guide with several ideas pairing Numi tea with other consciously sourced items, for a variety of  tastes!

Tea + Books

What goes better with tea than books? For added eco-friendly benefits, pick up the books you plan to gift used at a local pre-loved book store. There’s no reason for the stigma that’s placed on giving “used” gifts!

Tea Lovers Gift Guide: Tea and Books

Numi Amber Sun Tumeric Tea
This delicious, rich turmeric tea will soothe and warm the body while a book soothes and stimulates the mind! Include information on Numi’s work with turmeric farmers in Madagascar (link this to blog post) for the social justice-minded recipient.

The Middle of Everywhere by Mary Pipher
Mary Pipher’s writings center around helping refugees enter the American community. Engaging and informative, full of personal experiences and stories.

My Life In France by Julia Child
A delightful, easy read- Julia Child’s musings on the culture and food of France accompanied by many personal photos taken by Paul Child.

Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
This lovely novel follows the experience of a young woman growing up in Nigeria, transplanting to the USA, and returning to her country of birth. Witty, lighthearted, and full of rich cultural descriptions and humorous moments.

Tea + Accessories

For the tea-drinker who likes to accessorize their habit, pair tea with a new ethically made mug and adorable recycled spoon! Never has a cup of tea been so Instagram-able!

Zig Zag Mug by Ten Thousand Villages
Made in Vietnam by artisans working with nonprofit organization Mai Vietnamese Handicrafts.

Milk and Honey Spoons
These stamped stamped spoons are made from recycled silverware and are etched with all sorts of cute sayings and designs!

Tea + Chocolate

When I’m not sure what to get someone (I don’t want to buy a gift that will just get tossed out or wasted!) I find myself often choosing “consumable” gifts. A nice little gift basket with Numi Organic Tea and fair trade chocolate would do nicely!

Tea Lovers Gift Guide: Tea and Chocolate

Numi Jasmine Green Tea
Wonderfully fragrant, plus, according to the experts, Jasmine Green tea pairs well with dark chocolate!

Divine Dark Chocolate with Mango and Coconut
Is this the worlds’ best chocolate? Maybe…  bits of mango and coconut are swirled into a rich dark chocolate infused with vanilla.

Alter Eco Black Truffles
Fair trade, organic, and made with organic coconut oil comes from Kerala Fair Trade Alliance on India’s Malabar Coast. (Also- the wrappers are compostable! How cool!)

Numi Organic Citrus Matcha
Such a fun gift for a foodie- they’ll be able to make there own matcha lattes and other creations with a citrusy twist!

Tea + Bath Products

I can’t be the only person who likes to drink tea while soaking in the tub! The following suggestions would make a lovely gift for that always-stressed person in your life who sometimes needs to be reminded to focus on a little self care here and there. Plus, each item is empowering for the community that manufactured it.

🌱 Why do grades of tea matter? The larger the leaf, the greater its surface area for steeping and the more complex the infusion. Numi uses only hand-plucked, fuller leaf quality tea for a pure taste that balances depth and nuance. Many bagged teas are machine-picked and use low-quality fannings and dust. Smaller grades release tannins more quickly, leading to a dark, bitter-tasting cup. Wake up with fuller leaf teas that steep slowly and evenly, delivering a smooth, rich flavor. When you drink our tea, you’ll immediately taste the difference. ☕️ Find our Breakfast Blend and over 40 delicious organic blends on our Amazon store. Link in bio.
