Day 23 of our 2023 Herbal Advent.
You may drink a lot of “orange spice” tea during the winter, which is typically orange, cinnamon, and clove. We’ve taken it to the next level with a unique spice blend making this a festive warming orange spice for the holiday.
This tea is wonderful with a couple of pieces of our tea sugar. That really brings out the orange above the spices and makes it feel just wonderfully festive.
FUN FACT: This flavor is also in the caffeine advent!

Day 23 of the Plum Deluxe herbal advent. Quick note because some family stuff in the past 24 hours has forced a complete change in Christmas plans and I suddenly have a lot to do today. Everything is fine, but my partner’s family abruptly had to go somewhere on Christmas so we are not doing Christmas with them for the first time ever. We’ve… never done Christmas at home. If anyone has any advice for making a cozy Christmas for two, I’m open to suggestions – I am so out of my depth! We have a little Charlie Brown tree I’m going to set up and maybe do Christmas movies and still figuring out food…
Anyway this is a nice orange spice tea but I’m not sure it’s chai-level spiced. It’s a nice sweet orange. Other flavors are cinnamon, basil, I want to say clove but there isn’t any in here. Even the ginger is hard to make out except for the occasional back of the throat burn with some sips. I like it fine, it just doesn’t quite live up to the name.
I don’t have any friends or family that live anywhere near me, so I always do holidays on my own, just me and the cat. I think making your own traditions is a good way to go (for example, I have “Thaisgiving” where I get a bunch of Thai food to eat over Thanksgiving). I celebrate Festivus rather than Christmas which is already much, much more low-key (I have the aluminum pole and everything!), but ordering in pizza, taking a luxurious bath or shower, and lounging in PJs on the couch with the cat are all things I look forward to during the time off from work. (A cozy afternoon tea session with some sweets is also nice!)
Love that you have the aluminum pole! Thank you for the advice.
That’s too bad. It sure sounds good!
