She also had a beautiful collection of tea cups and saucers, which I am fortunate enough to have now. Mudder was a good old Lipton lady!

I love Zhena's Gypsy Tea. My favorite is the Raspberry Earl Grey. To answer your question, I would have Genmaicha green tea with my grandfather, who passed away. What a wonderful notion. Thank you.

He passed away 14 years ago and was the first gentleman, true gentleman that I had ever met (other than my own father) and he was an avid tea drinker. I think I'd set the table with earthenware mugs, daffodils and daisies, scones and jam and a lovely Earl Grey from G.H. Ford Tea Company. Earl Grey is not my favorite, but it would suit him just fine. Thanks for wandering onto my blog...it is a pleasure to meet another tea lover!

I would have tea with my maternal grandmother. Growing up I spent every possible moment with her. She was a second mother to me. Sadly, she died very young at 69. I have always missed her. If given the chance, I would have tea with "Memaw" and I think we would drink Peppermint Tea by Harney and Sons. Memaw was full of life and energized those around her - Peppermint Tea makes me think of her. Reading this post made me teary eyed. I would have tea with my maternal grandmother.

I would have tea with Grandma C. (mostly because I never saw her drinking coffee). A simple cinnamon tea is always wonderful in crisp mornings/evenings in the mountains where I grew up. I would bake madeleines (which I'm sure she never saw in her life time having lived in a secluded town in Mexico) and I would have asked her sooooo many things... sigh...she passed away almost 21 years ago... funny…as soon as i saw your twitter I said “grandma” and then I saw the post title…hee hee…
