Imagine being whisked away to a fragrant, fresh apricot orchard... That's the sensation you'll get with each sip of our delectable Honeybush Apricot herbal tea. It combines the soft flavor of ripe apricots with the smooth, roasted flavor of sweet Honeybush tea. Soft, mellow mouthfeel and balanced crispness. Completely caffeine-free.
The expectation for any snow is dwindling fast. Moved the chance forward by over 6 hours and expectation of amount to less than 1/4โ.

Realizing that some might want a decaf birthday/party tea (including my younger nephews) I created a new blend called Decaf Party. If you have any young LEGO fans, they may enjoy this one :) https://www.adagio.com/234978

295 days till Halloween ๐๐๐ I didn't think i would end up posting today, but I'm too scared to sleep with the surgery tomorrow, I'm heartbroken about the fires in California, im seeing pictures of streets and places I know just reduced to ash and I'm so heartbroken. I can't quit thinking of my poor dear Uncle, and his beautiful community and hoping he has a home to return too. My picture today is of one of mine and, Jake's visits, on this particular, California adventure, we got to tour Nickelodeon studios and Jake proposed. Sending so much love, hope, and hugs to you all my sweet tea family.๐๐โโฌ๐

Just under 24 hours ago we had to say goodbye to our eldest cat, Soyokaze Nimrodel. She came into my life about 16 years ago when she was only a week or two old and she adopted me on the spot. She leapt over the rainbow bridge with all of the sass and love in her heart and now she is cuddling with her big 'sister' Arashi until I see them again. We're utterly devastated as she gave us very little warning of how sick she really was. I may be a bit of a ghost for a little while. Know that I'm probably lurking and that I love you guys. Just feel like a ghost.
12:23 am
I'm so sorry to hear this, Beth, sending you the biggest of hugs๐
12:25 am
PM
Beth, my heart goes out to you. I felt like that for quite awhile. Give yourself the grace and time you need to grieve.
12:30 am
Much love and prayers as your heart heals, so very sorry.
12:37 am
Youโve lost a beloved family member Beth. You need time to grieve and healing will come when youโre ready - there is no set timeline. Hugs to you both.
12:58 am
Sorry for your loss!
01:04 am
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost my cat about 6 years ago and still miss her. We never forget them.
01:25 am
So sorry to hear and sending hugs
01:25 am
Beth, our hearts go out to you, as parents of our beloved menagerie of fur balls, we know what it's like and it's never easy. Hubby says they're going ahead of us to pave the way until we can all be together again.
01:41 am
Beth, it's amazing how much love we have for our pets, it's more amazing how much love they give us. I'm sorry for your loss. I know that pain many times over. Take all the time you need, grieving has no deadline. Hugs!
02:02 am

02:27 am
Oh no, Beth! Iโm so sorry. It hurts like nothing else. ๐ Sending lots of love in your direction ๐ฉต

Beth, hugs and much love. Losing a fur baby is devastating. Sending comfort and healing vibes.
08:25 am
Sorry for your loss
08:39 am
Iโm so sorry to hear this Beth. Take care.
09:46 am
Oh, I'm so sad for you. Cats are so good at hiding their illnesses that it's difficult for us to see what's going on with them. I hope that your good memories of the 16 years you shared can comfort you a bit while you grieve.
12:48 pm
I'm so sorry, Beth. I'll be thinking about you and sending lots of love.
01:05 pm
I'm so sorry Beth. Many of us know exactly what you are experiencing right now, its an emotional time. Sending lots of hugs and love your way. Take the time you need to grieve.
02:33 pm
we never have enough time with our furfamily, Be kind to yourself while you grieve, so sorry for your loss.

So sorry Beth!! Thinking of you.๐

01:27 am
Yesterday was a busy day here with my brother's three kids coming to visit. Mostly, their teacher parents needed the break since they've had the kids underfoot for the past days with school out due to our snowy weather. (If the back roads get snowy/icy, there's no way for school buses to transport kids to & fro. Way too risky. There are usually snow days every year.) The kids were fun & energetic/rowdy. ;) I was also glad to return to calm and sanity afterwards though! ;) These kids happened with my brother's second marriage so I'm an older aunt for these sweet livelies. ;) And, here I am awake in the wee hours after only a few hours sleep like many adults my age! Our power also went off for about an hour before bedtime??? No idea what caused that. We are going to get more snowy/icy weather this weekend though. At least this time the road crews are going to do all they can beforehand since there's still snow from the last go round. I work the weekend 1st shift.
03:38 am
Sounds like a busy and exhausting but delightful day. Well, except for the not sleeping part.
08:29 am
Angel, it sounds like it was a good visit. I can relate to the sleep patterns, at 63 mine or anything but normal but I don't seem to suffer for Less. I hope you're stocked up on things you may need for the upcoming weather. We have some family in Missouri that had to resort to alternate places to stay because of extended power outages. Stay safe and warm!
02:05 pm

Good morning
04:11 am
Good morning, everyone! I took a leap and filed a dispute on the charges for those protection plans I never received. Mostly because my 1st payment went through, and I let them know I haven't received these items that they're expecting me to pay for, so the lady opened a dispute. The merchant responded REALLY fast. I was surprised. So hopefully we can get this resolved soon.
04:31 am
Yay!
07:45 am
Just got all the missing protection plans! Yay! ๐
09:53 am
It's funny how fast they can act once they realize that you will dispute the charge, and hold them responsible for providing the product or service.
08:23 am
Isn't it?! I also laughed about that when I got the emails for all my protection plan coverages coming through 1st thing this morning. ๐คฃ
09:53 am
Fingers crossed for you.
08:30 am
Thank you so much! They just sent me everything this morning so I can cancel the dispute. Whew!
09:54 am
Good morning, tea pals. Iโm looking forward to a cup of todayโs tea later. starting my day with a cup of pu erh coffee.
05:12 am
Good morning! Happy Thursday, everyone! Starting my day with plain Yunnan Noir. Haven't sipped this one in awhile -- things get "lost" in my tea stash sometimes....so enjoying revisiting a favorite I haven't had in some weeks. Flavored teas ahead.....just not until 8 am. :)

Good morning, lovely Adagians. Happy Thursday! I hope you are all doing well and having a great start to your day. Today I need to bring my Subaru in for an oil change and general checkup, but other than that, I have time to plan for upcoming birthdays and other things. God bless and have a super day!๐๐ซ๐๐ถ๐ต๐

Thank you, Jennifer. It hasn't started in earnest yet, but soon will. God bless...๐๐

07:35 am
Hello and good morning!!
07:49 am
Good morning! I'm starting the day with the bit of pu-erh coffee.
08:05 am
I did too! I really like the pu-erh coffee blend.
12:53 pm
I started the day with Raja Oolong Chai (yum...so cinnamony) and am now sipping Sweet Potato Pie. Exciting day today as we are going to go to see Wicked at the theater. It is another brisk morning here...Alexa indicates 36 degrees at the moment. Stay safe and warm. I hope all California tea friends are out of the path of the fires.
08:20 am
PM
I love Raja Oolong Chai. Great choice. Enjoy Wicked.
08:54 am
I had not had Raja Oolong Chai for a bit and really enjoyed it.
11:39 am
I saw Wicked over the holidays with my husband's aunt. I hope you and your hubby enjoy the show!
09:21 am
Thank you. I love music so I have a feeling I will love the movie too.
11:40 am
Enjoy Wicked. Iโve seen it both in London and twice stateside. I really enjoyed it.
09:33 am
Bambi, wow, that says a lot for it. I am really looking forward to it. Have wanted to go to see it for quite a while but I wanted to wait to go when the theater would not be crowded.
11:41 am
I love Raja Oolong! When I did a CHAI off, two years ago, with a friend of mine..Outta all of the chais.. Raja was the stand-out fav!
02:28 pm
PM
Definitely
10:38 pm
Good morning! I'm thankful we aren't dumped on with snow. It's just freezing rain, which isn't a big deal since we have zero plans today. I plan to stay cozy and study. Oh! Kiddo got a 92 on his ASVAB! :D
08:20 am
Yay! Go kiddo!
09:21 am
Always great when your kids do well. Much easier to encourage for the next thing ahead!
09:34 am
Today will be our last really cold day this week. It's currently 15โฐF with a windchill of -1โฐF!
08:25 am
Stay warm Ruth!
09:35 am
Good morning! Well, receiving my tea order was like Christmas all over again. Thank you very much CommuniTEA. You are an amazingly giving group of people. I think I'm actually grateful that I will be handing off my honeybush apricot to a neighbor - gives me more opportunity to sample some of my new teas! Goals for today: drink tea and put away Christmas.
09:20 am
I have those on my goals list today too!
09:24 am
Adagio does such a good job! Itโs been fun doing these tastings. The teas are good even if they are not your favorite kinds and they are just so pretty to look at! The honeybush apricot might be the honeybush/rooibos tea of choice to serve my rooibos tea loving friends. Very good!
09:26 am
Fire and fire risk has shut down schools but I work from home so itโs all good. My friend compared me to a Floridian who says โIโm fine, itโs just another hurricaneโ because I said Iโm in lower danger and it happens every year. Iโm looking forward to todayโs tea but I need so much more caffeine to start with today.
09:30 am
Stay safe, Orchid.
09:57 am
Good morning! My card is turned for the week and now itโs time to get busy reviewing syllabi. Such a not fun activity.
09:36 am
Good morning tea friends and I hope those of you in the California area are safe. Iโm enjoying Chestnut Chocolate Chai this morning as I wait for my first โwinterโ womenโs hike. Itโs cold but Iโm bundled up and very familiar with the trail. Later my husband and I are going shopping for a new bed!
09:44 am
Good morning CommuniTEA. I like honeybush apricot and have a bag in my stash. I think it's been a while, so I'm going to make a pot at work. Wishing everyone in the dangerous weather areas and SoCal fire zones all the best to stay safe.
10:06 am
G'day All! I made a tea cabinet blend with today's tea. I thank Michelle L., for the inspiration of mixing HoneyBush Apricot with Chocolate tea vibes. I enjoyed making a Christmastime blend... with this in mind... https://www.adagio.com/232629 ....Which I sipped joyfully in plethora over the Yuletide season. So, I made today--a Tigers Eye, Forest Berries & Honeybush Apricot cuppa. 'Twas awesome!!
10:38 am
WoW, sister gurhl! Looks really good. Apricots in my family is a big time winter fruit(we serve in the winter) we enjoyed for years. The combination of 2 kinds of chocolate teas and honeybush apricot is just sooooo yummmy....I made this combination many years ago, so with Twyla Moonbeam blending creative skills, this blend will be delicious. :) yum!
11:47 am
Ooh, very cool, about that wintry Apricot synchronicity, Woodie!!! ๐๐งก..
01:33 pm
Good morning. Wishing everyone a safe and warm day today

Good morning, tea buddies! โ๏ธ

Hello tea lovers.....stay warm and safe today
10:53 am
Another winter storm tonight and tomorrow. It's that time of the year, I guess.
11:03 am
I want to wish everyone in Adagio-land a wonderful morn-noon and just enjoy life and tell a Tea pal something nice about them and drink lots of your favorite tea...like today's tea is rocking hot or with your meal have it cold brew. Love you crazy and sweet Tea-Pals...big hugs everyone!
11:27 am
I hope everyone's staying safe today - whether from the fires or the weather.
11:54 am
Hi tea friends! I'll reiterate what others have said, hope everyone is staying safe and able to enjoy a cup of tea! I'm thankful to work from home to avoid traveling in the snow here in Ohio
12:47 pm
Hope that everyone stays safe during the strange weather that we're having!
01:16 pm
The sun is shining today tea friends, but the wind chills are still very cold. The granite kitchen countertops are being installed today and the workers had to wait for the stone to warm up before cutting the opening for the kitchen sink, itโs that cold. I had the apricot black tea I have in my stash. I needed some caffeine, the cold makes me sluggish.
01:35 pm
I'll tell ya what was surprisingly odd-- the Earthkeeper blend, iced. I have loved it as a hot tea with honey. But Iced--these floral notes came out & it was quite unusual. Alas, Soon enough, It shall be Spring again & time for Earth Day! We just gotta through Jan and the short month of Feb--and the Equinox in March will be here, bringing Vernal Fernal blessings!!
01:36 pm
Twyla, I'm going to enjoy winter while it lasts. I always enjoy spring time when everything starts to sprout, unfortunately it's usually pretty short here and then the heat of Summer hits and I'm running around muttering for months until it cools off again. I wish I was independently wealthy I'd have a winter home somewhere I could go to stay cool.
02:07 pm
No doubt. These brutal windy days in the mtns, lately, are just off the hook...thusly, I am dreaming April & May!! ๐๐ป๐ชด๐ต๐๐
02:12 pm
Oh, I'm going to have to try Earthkeeper iced. I've only ever had it hot and really like it. Thinking Spring thoughts here too.
03:38 pm
Would love to hear of you like it, iced.
03:44 pm
I'll report back. Do you ice it after hot brewing or cold brew it? I don't have the best luck with cold brewing so will try it hot and then chilled probably.
04:26 pm
Nancy, yes, I iced it after hot brewing.
08:13 pm
PZ
Almost Friday!
02:26 pm
Nebula, I just sent a counter offer trade, I can't handle mate
03:15 pm
What does it mean when a trading card says "available soon"?
03:30 pm
It means the potion size or even the tea is not currently available. You may not be able to redeem it until it's available or you upgrade to a sample size.
03:49 pm
Alright! How does someone upgrade?
04:20 pm
You collect 4 of the same cards to create a sample size. It doesn't work with zodiac teas, and maybe a few others.
04:29 pm
Not a bad tea
03:41 pm
Hi friends. Just saying hello, I know I've been a stranger. I'm finding that withdrawing from online spheres has been good for my mental health these past few months, but wanted to let you all know I still think about you all, even if I don't visit in here as much. ๐
03:58 pm
glad you peeked in, everyone could benefit from a break online from time to time, I don't do it often enough but most of my friends are online, especially since moving to a new state in 2020
04:30 pm
Thanks gals. It's been very good for me to recalibrate and refocus my energy on personal growth and contributing to local efforts to support folx who really need allies.
05:36 pm
Always good to see you here Alyssa.
04:54 pm
I understand completely. I went on a social media detox for a month last year and it really helped with my mental health. I hope youโre feeling better!
07:10 pm
Missed ya, Alyssa!!!!
08:12 pm
My tattoo is officially in the next stage if healing, its flaky and itchy, doing my best to leave it alone. I am trying to get back into the swing of things after our trip to Arizona but I am quite distracted and also still tired. I just organized my cards, because my ADHD brain said it was important lol Now is a great time to do some trading if anyone wants to take a look, I have over 100 cards. I don't do smoke, mate, hibiscus or sprinkles
04:09 pm
Hi Jasmine! I made you an offer. Feel free to accept or decline.
05:56 pm
countered
06:15 pm
Hi Jasmine. You motivated me. (Didn't take much... like you, there are other things I "should" be doing instead of trading cards!) I've offered a trade. If I have something else you'd rather have, feel free to counter.
07:34 pm
What is the gold/yellow outline around some cards?
04:34 pm
the outline is typically the type of tea it is, like herbal, oolong, black...
04:35 pm
It's outside the outline that shows the type of tea.
04:46 pm
I think it's when someone recently received a card.
04:44 pm
Oh, that would maybe make sense, thanks
04:47 pm
or the yellow number of cards when trading under a persons name
04:35 pm
We're supposed to get some snow/rain/ice tomorrow.
04:47 pm
Happy Thursday
04:57 pm
I almost forgot to check in for today! I enjoyed Twylaโs Rose Angel Chai this morning and then some cranberry cream this afternoon.
05:28 pm
Oh how wonderful! That is synchronistic...as, I just ordered that blend, to gift to a friend!
08:11 pm
First day back in person at work today (allowed to work from home over winter break, then snow) and we started off the morning with a delayed soup and salad social! It was โfunโ getting everything in the building in one trip from the third floor of a parking garage in 6 degree weather! But the event itself was legit fun and a huge success so worth it. And bonus, it was so cold out we just took all our leftovers to our cars instead trying to Jenga the fridges! I made a lasagna soup, an orange jello salad and brought in GF bread. Had some salad left but everything else was gobbled up!
05:46 pm
Hi Elizabeth! Good to see you! It sounds like a great event; lasagna soup sounds delicious!
06:06 pm
I miss the potluck lunches used to have at my other job. They were a lot of work, but so much fun!
08:16 pm
Ooh sounds fun! Mostly fun. ๐ Reminds me of the soup and chili cookoff fundraisers in the office atrium.
11:47 pm
Almost forgot to post today! Hi all!
05:56 pm
๐ฎ๐โ๏ธโ๏ธ Name that game.
06:00 pm
I like Honeybush Apricot tea but it rarely crosses my mind. I'd have a cup but was gifted or bought so many new teas that I'd rather focus on those! ;)
06:09 pm
I just sent out a ton of trades, I am not sad at all if you decline or counter, thanks everyone
06:18 pm
Today's tea is OK. Not really my thing because I'm not that big on honeybush, but it's not bad either. Sweetening it might improve it for me, but I can drink it without that, too.
06:28 pm

Iโm having a cup of Festivus for the Rest of Us this afternoon, and itโs delicious! I won it on Adagioโs spin the wheel before Christmas and I was very pleased to receive a sample tin jam-packed with goodness! The flavors are chocolate and orange, and it reminds me of one of those dark chocolate orange balls that you thwack on the counter to break it into wedges - this tea is like that. I had only had it from a single packet from a CT box before, but this time it seemed so much more flavorful. I think maybe my taste buds are changing on some things. Iโm going to put it on my wishlist. Thanks Adagio for the gift!https://www.adagio.com/134617
06:39 pm
AD
Same here, I donโt normally like flavored teas, but Iโm really enjoying Festivus, which was a surprise. My family members get the Terryโs Chocolate Orange for a stocking stuffer every year, and I agree, itโs very much like a mellow tea version of that. โบ๏ธ
08:15 pm
For fun, I iced Festivus, later in the afternoon today & it was super good!!!
08:43 pm

This has a great flavor!
06:40 pm
Great tea today but great with honey and scones. Woodster has been making scones the last few days.

Tomorrow's tea is suuuuch a treat!
08:47 pm
We might get a few inches of snow here tomorrow! Fingers crossed so the dogs have their first good snow to explore!
08:56 pm
Watching dogs bounce around and joyfully play in the snow is the best thing ever!
09:54 pm
Aw, hope they have fun!

Happy National apricot day! Lovely tea to celebrate!

Michelle L, I love Gladysโs traffic stop.

Loved today's tea. I went to a store in a nearby city a few days ago, and I happened to spot a few Adagio products there - cool to see it in public.
10:53 pm
Today's tea is delicious!

Aw, thank you to whoever bought my Gemma cat blend, hope you enjoy! $$ goes to the PA SPCA. ๐ฅฐ
