Spot of Tea…

Novus Tea - Home

I’m sorry, but nothing can refresh a body better than tea. (when you need something to drink) Iced tea, hot tea, even a tea rub on a favorite grilled item. There’s something about those tea leaves. I stumbled onto a brand of tea while working; one thing about working in a restaurant, you can run into some interesting concepts in anything that has to do with food.
Novus brand Tea is one of the best teas I’ve tried,  there are 8 blends several of which I’ve tried.

CITRUS CHAMOMILE HERB
This is my favorite of all the blends, and that’s saying something if I had to put down my peppermint tea for this. It was so good, I bought a case after trying one bag. Light and fruity. Not overbearing and heavy. I even tried to over-steep it to see what the flavors would be like, and they were still distinct and flavorful. This is a tea for mid day while you’re awake and can enjoy the full flavors.

WILD ENCOUNTER HERB TEA
Wild encounter is another blend that I adore. It’s a slight bit heavier that the previous blend, but does not weigh on your palet. This one has a more berry flavor that can be enjoyed by almost everyone. (Even if you don’t like berries) Plus it’s full of other subtle flavors like rosehips and apple, this one is destined to waken those tastebuds.

EGYPTIAN MINT HERB TEA
Now I love mint tea. If you want to get on my good side, bring me a steaming cup of Mint tea. Early in the Morning or late in the evening, Mint tea is guaranteed to bring a sense of calm into your day. I like my tea strong so I let it steep a little longer than most, and like the other ones it does not miss a step when it comes to flavor quality.

PAI MU TAN
Pai Mu Tan- (what does that mean???) Must mean darn good tea. This is the White tea blend that Novus is having me drool over. A perfect strong breakfast tea, well I wouldn’t say strong maybe firm would be a better word. It holds it’s own with any stand up tea, I had to look twice just to make sure it wasen’t a Black Tea after trying it. It blew me away and woke me straight up. Whooooo… I gotta go get me a cup right now. BRB


Now what would a critique on tea be without the correct way to enjoy it. I found this lil beauty  hiding on americanbridal.com and sells for $40.95, not bad for the art of tea. This would be sure to impress at any party or gathering, or make yourself feel good while just relaxing.

S&B Seasonings Lemon Sugar
Tea with a twist of Lemon and Sugar, S&B Seasonings Lemon Sugar would be the perfect addition for baking, and any tea festivity. With REAL Lemon Zest and Lemon Juice to heighten your entertaining experience. 
Our goal, in offering the finest products, is to refer you to the best there is to offer.  Our Lemon Sugar will top off the experience and have you and your guests waiting for your next event.

That’s it for this review. Have a great time and enjoy that tea, This is the Rude Boy Chef………. and I’m out!
