I didn’t drink tea until I was in my mid-20s, but the past decade and some change have made me a devoted tea fan. I have a whole morning routine with my cuppa, and I love the ritual there is in making the tea, then enjoying it sip by sip as I wake up. Being a little picky about my tea, I used to pack my favorites from home while traveling, as to not get stuck in the morning without my ritual. So naturally, as the weather grows colder, I couldn’t help but think about fellow tea fans and the perfect literary gifts for tea lovers.
These literary gifts for tea lovers feature a variety of book-themed teas, as well as stickers, mugs, and more treats that the tea fandom will enjoy. Pick up one of the book-themed teas, along with a mug, and you have a great and easy gift.
Of course, if you are a tea drinker, you can indulge yourself with these literary gifts, too. Because why not?
