In the Nik of Tea-time
tea productsCalgary
(Apr.12.07)
With all the stresses and strains of life -- juggling work, the gym and cocktails with the girls -- we need to relax with a cup of tea. 
But with so many brewing options (we’ve only recently added the leaf to our formerly grounds-only roster) and us with so little time and knowledge, we’re letting Nicole Schon of T-Nik Tea do the deciding for us.
While teaching us how to steep to perfection, Schon’s brand new business offers steamy web- and newsletter-based trivia, while delivering premium blends and other tea-related products (think, Oxford stainless steel teapots, $70) right to our door.
And with 200 varieties, such as Lapsang Souchong, Indian Mocha Chai and Organic Ceylon, the choices are limitless — all sourced through the Ethical Tea Participation (no minimum order required for deliveries). Plus, with packages of two- ($5), eight- ($15) and 16- ounce ($27-$36) tins, we find ourselves irresistibly addicted and now sending them to our BFFs as gifts.
We’ll be kicking back tonight with a cuppa Organic Earl Grey Cream that tastes just like a bergamot with cream reminiscent of chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream… add a touch of Baileys and we’ve redefined girls’ night in.
