When I was little I always had tea parties for my dolls and teddies, I wasn’t lucky enough to have real tea though, using water instead. Adagio Teas have bought out a range of teas especially for children with different themes. They can be bought individually or in gift sets. The storytime tea comes in three gorgeous tins depicting the Three Little Pigs, Alice in Wonderland and Red Riding Hood. The pyramid tea bags, 15 in each tin, are beautiful in themselves.

Even the inside of the lids are illustrated making them very special tins indeed.

The teas are all caffeine free, I am not a fan of encouraging children to drink ‘normal’ tea so these fruit teas make a great alternative. Plus they make a fab hot drink containing ingredients that include camomile, rosehips, blueberries and cocoa nibs. I wish you could smell them, they are absolutely divine, so strong in fragrance but as always with herbal blends a lot more subtle in taste.

Our favourite Storytime tea is ‘Alice in Wonderland’, a blend of green rooibos, apples, raspberry leaves, raspberries, strawberries, strawberry and créme flavours, cornflowers and rose petals. Whilst very fruity this tea has a gorgeous cream, almost vanilla flavour making the tea smooth to drink. A perfect introduction to herbal teas for children.

The teas are £6 per tin or £16 for a gift set of all three. There are two other sets; Tree House which includes teas called, Rocket Fuel, Tea-Rex and Monster Fuel. The other set is called Fairy Tales with tea called, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Cinderella.

These make great gifts for children that love entertaining, now they can have their very own tea that will look great at their tea parties.
