Tea of the Month: Mocha Mate & Strawberry Hazelnut Pu Erh
Chocolate covered strawberries have become a common Valentine's Day treat. Mocha Mate blended with Strawberry Hazelnut Pu Erh is our guilt-free tea version of the chocolate covered fruit!
Mocha Mate is a toasted yerba mate blended with dark chocolate chips, marigold flowers and natural flavors. Mate teas are high in caffeine, giving you energy without the jitters or the caffeine crash that coffee can sometimes cause, and they are rich in B vitamins and minerals.
Strawberry Hazelnut Pu Erh is blended with pu erh leaves, strawberry pieces, cocoa nibs, rose petals, and natural flavors. This fermented tea leaf has probiotics and is great for bloating and digestion.
Try this blend hot, with a dash of honey and splash of creamer.

Spice of the Month: New Mexico Red Chile Powder
We enjoy using red and green chile powder to add a little spicy kick to just about anything, including desserts! In honor of Valentine's Day, the month of all chocolate sweets for that someone special (or for yourself), we tried adding Hatch, New Mexico, Red Chile Powder to brownies! Check out the recipe below!
Essential Oil of the Month: Patchouli
Patchouli has a full, musky-sweet scent. Patchouli has several benefits and ways to be used, including being used as a natural insect repellent, soothing inflammation, a natural deodorant, and improving skin health. We also like to use Patchouli as a mood booster and libido booster! Patchouli encourages the release of serotonin and dopamine (the feel good hormones)! Try diffusing it in a romantic blend below!
