How to Pick the Best Teas at DAVIDsTEA!

Taking time to brew a delicious, steaming hot cup of tea is a comforting ritual – especially when the weather outside is frightful! Tea is full of beneficial properties for our health and is a great way to wean yourself away from coffee if you would like to reduce your intake of caffeine.

DAVIDsTEA is a beautiful shop, full of good-for-you treats, whether for yourself or someone else. Tea makes a great gift. The shop carries related accessories (such as tea strainers, mugs and even tea-scented candles!) as well as a huge assortment of loose leaf teas. You do need to be picky though, since some of the teas contain less desirable ingredients, but there are still a great diversity of good choices.

In addition to a plethora of black, green and white teas in a multitude of flavours, DAVIDsTEA also carries many herbal and caffeine-free options. Rooibos, a slightly sweet and antioxidant rich leaf, is one of my favourites, especially the one I picked up from DAVIDsTEA recently, Creme Brulée – caramel flavoured heaven in a cup!

When it comes to choosing from the many options, keep in mind that many of the teas at DAVIDsTEA are organic and flavoured naturally so I would tend to pick those. If you look at the brochure listing of teas, you can find the organic choices by looking for a tiny leaf to the right of the tea name.

Ask your server which teas are free of artificial colours and flavours. The choices that fit that description for Rooibos teas at DAVIDsTEA include Cinnaberry, Creme Brulée, Earl Grey Rooibos, Green Rooibos, Pure Vanilla, Rooibos and Super Ginger. 


I hope you wander into this delightful store some time soon and treat yourself or someone you love!
