A Giveaway: What's Your Cup of Tea?

I am so excited to introduce Cup of Loveliness, my new line of loose teas! I have been working with a tea blender, and we have four new blends to share.

  • Roseberry -- my signature blend, a fragrant black tea flavored with raspberry, rose petals and lavender
  • Peach-Pomegranate -- a refreshing blend of black and green teas flavored with peach and pomegranate
  • Southern Pecan -- a delicious black tea flavored with the smooth taste of pecan
  • Holiday-Spice -- a festive black tea flavored with vanilla, cinnamon and other tastes of the season
Which flavor would be your cup of tea? Tell me in the comments section to be entered to win a bag of tea, to be announced later this week!

I am an avid tea drinker and all of these flavors sound fantastic. I'll choose Southern Pecan with one splenda please. :)

Kelly said...

Tea is my go-to drink this time of year at work. I would love some of that Holiday Spice--it sounds terrific.

Rach said...

Oh my, they all sounds delicious. It's a super close tie for me between the Roseberry and The Peach Pomegranate. The Roseberry sounds so soothing and would be great for winding down before bed. Then, the Peach Pomegranate sounds so refreshing. I'd also like to try it on ice!

A Joyful Chaos said...

I would like the Peach Pomegranate, they all sound good though.

It is so hard to pick one. They all sound wonderful! But, I think I am going to have to go with Peach-Pomegranate.

Beki BR said...

I can't pick one over another !!! I'd like a little of each !!! :)

Beki BR said...

How do I order ?

Julie said...

Peach-Pomegranate please :)...one steaming hot cup with honey to go! It's so nice to sit and sip on a cup of tea this time of year...just hard to stay in one place long enough! Thank you for sharing, julie

Karina said...

Peach Pom for sure, but Southern Pecan sounds delish too!!!

Anonymous said...

Can't wait to hear how to order. They all sound wonderful. This time of year, I think I'd like to try Holiday Spice. Love the recipes suggestions you shared earlier too!

oh lordy lordy, Southern pecan please. As I live in a century old farm house nestled between 200 year old pecan trees... What a fabulous hobby.

LeeAnne said...

Holiday spice would be my first choice, though I would love to eventually try them all! I really hope you're able to work out a way to sell them online ... I have a group of friends who, with me, adore tea, and this would be the perfect unique Christmas gift for them all! (As an aside, have you ever been to The English Rose tearoom in Chattanooga? If you're ever in the area, it's a must-see for a tea lover like yourself!) Finally, I have to thank you for the Horchow sale notification - my new hand towels arrived last week and look great!

Carina said...

I'm an avid tea drinker (at LEAST 3cups a day), but I can't seem to choose just one of your blends! I think it's a tie between Southern Pecan and Roseberry--both sound lovely! :)

Andrea Denny said...

The Roseberry and Holiday Spice sound great. It is just barely getting cooler here in CA and I trick myself into feeling in a more wintery/holiday mood by drinking spicy tea. :o) And Roseberry just sounds comforting.

Nancy Jacobs Basketmaster said...

Southern Pecan would be my choice. It sounds so soothing,
Nancy

Tracy B at FeedSack Cooking said...

Southern Pecan or Holiday Spice. Which one do I choose. Since I love Pecan Pie and southern pecan coffee. I am sure that I would enjoy a nice cup of hot southern pecan tea.

Gridiron Girl said...

Congratulations on your new tea line, I hope it will be a great success.

Kristy Mize said...

The Roseberry sounds good to me!

Kristen said...

Holiday Spice sounds yummy!

ikkinlala said...

Having not tried them I'm not sure, but I'd most like to try the Southern Pecan - I've never seen anything similar before.

Moms For Morality said...

You had me at Roseberry!I'm sure the aroma alone is enough to help me have a great day, the flavor must be fabulous!

maryanne420 said...

Southern Pecan sounds soooo lovely!

mgster said...

wow...congratulations to you for this new tea endeavor! I wish you great success. My daughter and I are tea fanatics! I think all the blends sound wonderful and I guess my favorite would be the Holiday Spice. Thanks!

mgster said...

Forgot to add that I made your Chicken Salad Croissants yesterday and they were a big hit! I did boil the chicken on Saturday because I HATE the smell of chicken while it is boiling (for some reason). And then Sunday afternoon I put it all together. WONDERFUL! I have a bridal shower to attend in a few weeks and this is just what I am bringing...so thanks so much!

Cherish Stockdale said...

Peach Pomegrante FOR SURE!!! Sounds soo good!!

Judy said...

Oh, they all sound so good but I think I'd like to try the holiday mix since we're entering the holiday season.

Weren't our girls just precious Saturday? They are both "strong Southern women" in training.... plus they are a lot more brave than I would have been on that stage.

Love ya,
Judy

Kathryn @ Bonafide Southern said...

All of the flavors sound so wonderful, but of all, I'd probably choose Holiday Spice. It always seems "Christmasy" when those spices and smells fill the home. Thanks for the giveaway offer!

T. Brodie said...

I'd have to go with Holiday Spice. They all sound terrific though!

♥Kristie Lynn♥ said...

They all sound wonderful, and I would also be able to purchase them online!! My first choice would have to be Holiday Spice!!

Livin' the Yeh Life! said...

Tough decision... I'd have to say Holiday spice. Black tea AND cinnamon... yummy!

Suzanne said...

I absolutely love hot tea, and the Southern Pecan flavor sounds really intriguing!! Thanks and let us know when they will be available for purchase online.

mommieofthree said...

Hi Ms. Melissa! I'd love to try your peach-pomegranate. When I think of them two together, it makes my tastebuds tingle.
Michelle

Shane and Kristy Davis said...

Definitely "Southern" pecan to remind me of my childhood in the south:)
My family is now serving the Lord in Alberta, Canada and boy, do they like tea here! Have you ever had a London Fog? That is my favorite, with skim milk of course:)

Ruby's Fairy Godmother said...

Peach-Pomegranate sounds fab! Now how do we order??

The Southern Pecan sounds so yummy!

parTea lady said...

Congrats on having your own tea line. Each blend sounds delicious, but if I could only pick one I'd probably try the Roseberry.

Please drop by and enter my giveaway at Tea and Talk.

Ashley said...

Melissa,
Thanks for this opportunity. Southern Pecan, definitely. I am originally from Georgia- lived there until age 30 and then in Panama City, Florida (still southern) until I moved to Texax. But my roots are definitely in Georgia where all my family remains. I lived in LaGrange for 5 years and my dear friends know you in-laws. Your blog is beautiful and thank you for whetting our appetites for the things of God and His loveliness.

Blessings,
Ashley

Leanne Helums said...

They all sound yummy, but I would have to go for the holiday spice.

Mrs. Sensibility said...

They all sound wonderful. I think I would start with the Holiday Spice and then move on to the Southern Pecan. I hope that we will be able to purchase them soon.

Laura said...

Because of the upcoming holidays..."Holiday Spice" is my fav! Thanks for the chance to win, Melissa!

Mommy2Twins said...

I cannot wait to try these out. Hope you are planning a little get together so we can sample the teas. The holiday spice sounds so yummy and so does the roseberry. I hope this really goes well for you, Melissa. You are such a lovely lady!!!!!

Beth said...

Wow you never cease to amaze me. When you talk tea you have my attention. The holiday spice sounds wonderful. I hope this goes well for you.

You know you've come up with some good blends when so many of us can't come up with a favorite! After much deliberation, I have narrowed it down to either Holiday Spice or Southern Pecan. :) I love your blog! BTW, I made the fruit covered cheesecakes (you blogged about some time ago)this week and they were so yummy! Thank you! Now instead of googling recipes I just come to your site! I know if you post it then it's a winner! Thank you!

Mary Beth said...

Congratulations! Life has been so busy lately for our family, so I haven't been following as closely as I usually do. You've been busy!
The teas look fabulous!
Roseberry would be my pick since it's your signature blend.
I am so excited for you and I hope the best for you and please let us all know how we can get your tea when that time comes!

gail said...

Roseberry please! I will enjoy getting acquainted with your blog.

The Liberty Belle said...

congratulations and best wishes for your new venture!

Each of the teas sound simply wonderful. Although it's difficult to choose with such tempting options, I'm going to pick roseberry!

Lisa said...

I love tea! Your blends all sound wonderful and it is hard to pick a favorite. But if I must choose I'd pick the Holiday Spice- it sounds so warm and festive.
I would love to try them all.
