Tea Blending Podcast Series
I have created a podcast on my Substack. Link is below. I hope you listen and enjoy!!
In this foundational episode of the April Joy Wellness Tea Blending Series, we kick off our 28-day journey into the art and science of tea blending. We begin by dismantling the common misconception that blending is merely mixing ingredients, revealing it as a thoughtful practice that marries creative intuition with scientific understanding of botanicals. You'll discover the three primary techniques professional blenders employ: the delicate, prolonged process of scenting (like with jasmine tea), the post-harvest addition of flavoring agents (think spices and fruits), and traditional blending which involves combining various teas and herbs. A key takeaway is the "blending blueprint"-a proportional hierarchy of base, supporting, flavoring, and finishing herbs-which serves as your guide to creating balanced, therapeutically effective, and delicious blends. We also differentiate between appreciating single-origin teas and leveraging the power of blended teas for diverse benefits and enhanced flavor experiences. This episode empowers you with the core knowledge needed to embark on your intentional blending adventure, setting the stage for deeper exploration into crafting wellness in a cup.
Stay positive and kind. Small steps lead to big transformations! 🌿✨
