Fall is the perfect season to warm up with a hot cup of tea. With temperatures dropping and days getting shorter, there's nothing like a good cup of tea to relax, whether it's in the middle of the afternoon or during your cozy evenings. Today, we're sharing some simple tips to make your tea times even more enjoyable and guide you through the rich and varied world of fall infusions.
1. The Best Teas for Fall
Fall is the perfect time to embrace warmer, more comforting tea flavors. Spiced teas, like chai or fall spice tea , are great choices for this season. Their aromas of cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom bring a warming touch to your breaks. Black teas and oolong teas are also wonderful fall companions, with their rich, robust flavors that instantly warm you up.
Don't forget herbal teas like chamomile or verbena, ideal for relaxing in the evening, and fruit infusions that offer lighter, but still comforting flavors.
2. How to Prepare the Perfect Tea?
Brewing the perfect cup of tea takes a little attention, and each type of tea has its own unique characteristics. Here are some simple tips for successful brewing:
- Water temperature : Use hot but not boiling water to avoid bitterness for green and white teas (70-80°C), while black and oolong teas tolerate hotter water (90-100°C).
- Brewing time : Follow the recommended brewing time to avoid a strong or bitter tea. Generally, green and white teas take 2 to 3 minutes, black teas take 3 to 5 minutes, and herbal teas can take up to 10 minutes.
- Use a quality infuser : A suitable infuser allows the aromas of the leaves to be released while keeping them separate from your drink. For a perfect infusion at all times, our range of thermoses with integrated infusers are ideal.
3. The Essential Accessories for Enjoying Your Tea

4. Tea Rituals: Create Your Moment of Relaxation
Drinking tea is a true wellness ritual , and fall is the perfect opportunity to turn it into a moment of ultimate relaxation. Here are some ideas to make your tea break even more special:
- Create a cozy atmosphere : Light a scented candle, wrap yourself in a soft blanket, and settle in with your cup of tea. Let the autumn atmosphere envelop you.
