Tea for You by Tracy Stern, Tracy
Relaxing over a cup of tea with a dear friend is a timeless way to celebrate a friendship, and sharing the best of teas is a true treat. TEA FOR YOU will show tea enthusiasts of any level how to create moments of delicious indulgence by blending custom teas to share with friends and family. Tracy dedicates an entire chapter on selecting ingredients and understanding their flavor profiles, sharing her vast knowledge of tea leaves, botanicals, and herbs that are readily available. Blend smoky Earl Gray tea with floral chamomile flowers, or mix clean white tea with dried lavender and rose. Dry bright orange peel and add to a dark black tea along with spicy cardamom. Tracy even teaches about the health benefits of ingredients such as St. John's Wort, a sleep aid, or guarana, a tropical berry with high caffeine content for a super pick-me-up. With this knowledge in hand, anyone will be able to conjure the favorite flavors of friends and relatives in teas created just for them. Name each custom tea after the recipient and give a heartfelt gift they won't find anywhere else. Or dream up a house blend for yourself for entertaining. With all this tea to drink, don't worry about going hungry! Tracy includes twenty recipes that use the same ingredients that go into tea to make delicacies perfect for serving with tea, including Rosehip Jelly, Red Tea and Rose Petal Popsicles, Earl Gray Shortbread, and Green Tea Matcha Poundcake. This creative list of recipes infuses the flavors of tea and herbal influsions in all types of foods...even popcorn. To round out this lovely book are Tracy's ideas for using tea and other natural ingredients to create indulgent beauty treatments for pampering, just like the ones she sells in her highly sought-after BeauTea products. A soak in Tracy's Special Tea Bath--made with ground oatmeal, mint black tea, geranium oil, and Nasturium flowers--is the perfect way to wind down. As a charming, beautifully illustrated gift book, TEA FOR YOU is loaded with new and interesting information about one of the world's oldest and most favored beverages. Any tea enthusiast will be thrilled to open this book and start giving the gift of beautiful handmade teas.
