I thought I would share my Advent tea drinking adventures with you thus far:

Day 1: Johannisbeere Früchtetee - blackcurrant fruit tea
Day 2: Weißer Tee - white tea
Day 3: Früchtetee mit natürlichem Erdbeer-Cranberry Aroma - fruit tea w natural strawberry and cranberry aroma
Day 4: Rooibos Wildkirsche - Rooibos wild cherry
Day 5: Earl Grey

It is such a treat in the midst of the current madness to take 15 minutes to sit down, light a candle and enjoy a cup of tea. I particularly enjoyed trying the white tea - other new flavours were the strawberry with cranberry and wild cherry. I have never really taken to Earl Grey but today's brew has, I think, changed my mind.

In fact, the experience is so pleasant, I am already thinking of continuing it beyond Advent. Tea - and Advent - are taking on a whole new dimension!
