Our little tea company was founded in New Mexico, so our roots run deep within Mexican culture, as it is the most prominent heritage in our beloved border state. We understand the importance of tradition and family, and our business is founded on these ideas, as many of our products include flavors, scents, colors, and ideas that are rooted in Mexican culture. Today we celebrate the resilience, strength and unity of this heritage by sharing our favorite Mexican inspired recipes using OBTC products.

Did You Know?

Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican Independence Day, a popular misconception. Instead, it commemorates a victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations.
