And do it right. Use loose tea for brewing so you get the full, rich aroma that is part of the charm of a cup of tea. Use a pretty cup--this should be an experience, not just a brief cup on the run. Take a moment away from everything else--sit in front of a window, or before the fire, or in a comfy chair. Someplace special. And take a few deep breaths while you savor the taste and warmth of one of life's easiest pleasures.
Ahhhhhhh.
Drink the tea while it is hot. By the time it is cold, it's OK to get back to whatever else you were doing.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

When we brew and drink tea it give us the chance to take time out, slow down our pace and spend time on ourselves. One of my favorite is raspberry green tea. Thanks for sharing.
That's what's interesting and intriguing about tea. While it has caffeine (all real tea does, herbals are not technically tea), it is the cultural opposite of coffee. Tea means slowing down, coffee means a jolt of energy.
When I lived in the Twin Cities, I worked at a great shop called Tea Source. www.teasource.com. If you want something to truly make you stop and relax, try the Milk Oolong. God's tea.
