Christmas Tea and Coffee Gifts - Christmas Gift Guide

If there’s one thing that’s helped get us through 2020, it’s been a good cup of tea or coffee that’s strengthened the nerves and helped us battle on. Why not continue this great British tradition and give the gift of a warming hot drink this year.

Here are my favourite independently produced tea and coffee themed gifts for 2020:

Flowering Tea Gift Set - Jing Tea

This is the perfect gift for a couple who really savour their tea. This gift set includes Jing Tea’s Two Cup Tea-iere, Two Glass Cups and Saucers, and four bulbs of beautiful Flowering Jasmine and Lily tea.

I simply love this gift set as the two cup tea-iere is large enough to allow flowering tea bulbs to bloom and infuse with the water, creating a mesmerising display. The cups are also beautiful and delicate, making the simple act of having a cup of tea into a mindful and relaxing ceremony for the senses.
