I am not much of a coffee drinker since the acidity doesn’t agree with the tum tums, but tea- oh yes tea is where it is at. Iced or hot, bring it on! I am constantly making sun tea (even on the days when it’s not sunny out). I always have a good stash on hand when it come to tea since after all you never know your mood- need a pick me up or a cool down? Tea is the answer. Plus we are always having people come to our home to stay (kinda the deal when you get to live in such a beautiful town and you happen to have a few spare bedrooms). So with that, we often need to keep the cupboard stocked for our little “b & b.” Today we are going to make our own tea bags that will be the perfect addition to my tea stash, but I won’t stop there. These tea bags would be great party favors, mother’s day gifts or even the perfect personalized addition to a tea party.
First cut your cheesecloth into strips that are about 8″ by 8″ and then fold to double up the cloth.
Place about 1 tablespoon of loose leaf tea in the center of your cheesecloth…you can have fun with flavor combos too!
Next bundle up your tea with some string to make a little sachet…
Time to attach the tags and make some fun sayings to make peeps smile extra while drinking their tea….
SO easy and yet so personal and fun!! The perfect addition to our little Nason ranch b & b!
