Lupicia’s Limited Edition Holiday Teas
Specialty tea brewer Lupicia has introduced a series of limited edition holiday teas just in time for the holiday shopping season.
These are not your mother’s teas, but rather sophisticated teas infused with complicated and exotic flavors. The White Christmas blend is a black tea flavored with white chocolate and apricot, while the Champagne Rose is flavored with strawberries and champagne flavors.
The company seems to see its teas as a potential replacement for cocktails for friends and relatives who do not drink. Lupicia recommends serving its grape-obsessed Muscat tea instead of a dessert wine, or creating a punch out of the Christmas Wreath blend which is flavored with apples, cranberries, and cinnamon.
The gift packs can be purchased online or at one of Lupicia’s California retail locations, where they will be wrapped in origami paper. If you prefer to get a more traditional flavor, Lupicia will sell you that too and will even sell you a special holiday-themed label for your tea tin.

I love teas. The White Christmas Blend sounds interesting. What I really like is Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Green Tea that they put out every year around the holidays.
