New Year, New Bloom!
At the start of the new year, I’ve been fascinated by blooming tea. I was gifted a new tea pot and some blooming tea options to explore. It’s such a calming experience to watch the tea flower bloom and unravel. Not only is it pleasant to watch it is also very tasty. The video below…
