With all the parties you will attend from now to the new year, and all the hostess gifts you will want or need to give, you’ll want to set your gift apart. Giving a gift you have made is often the most appreciated gift, since it shows you gave some thought to who the host and hostess really are.
If your friend or family member enjoys a cup of hot tea, preparing a custom blended tea for them will be a gift they will truly enjoy and something that is simple for you to do for them.
There are many tea blends out there to choose from but if you decide to blend your own, here is a materials list and recipe to try:
- loose black tea
- loose dried orange peel
- loose licorice root
- loose dried ginger
- container to store blended tea
- ribbon
- craft paper for a gift label
For each individual gift, mix together:
- 4 tablespoons black tea
- 2 tablespoons each: licorice root, ginger & orange peel
Fill each gift container with loose tea. Print a label on craft paper and punch a hole for the ribbon to loop through and tie the label to the gift container.
You have just created a personal hostess gift that will be appreciated and enjoyed. Feel free to add different dried fruit to the tea for different flavors. For more information and photos of the finished product, check out the link: Make Custom-Mixed Sweet Orange Tea Favors
