Herbal Tea Blending Workshop with My Cup of Tea | Sunday 11th October

This tutorial is set up for you to first talk through and taste the herbs we use in our tisane blends and learn the importance of quality sourcing, harvesting and processing for drinking herbs.

Then, with inspiration from the aromas, flavours and colours, you will choose a selection of herbs of which to experiment with making your own blend. An opportunity for you to be as reserved or experimental as you wish. You may then take home a sample of your final blend. 

My Cup of Tea makes seasonal Tisane blends inspired by the harvest. These plant-based, non-caffeinated blends are made from leaves. flowers, fruits, seeds, roots, rhizomes and barks.

They blend their herbs by hand in small batches, in proportions that accentuate the delicate notes of each.

The process of creating a My Cup of Tea blend relies on an understanding of seasonality and terroir, a deep respect for nature, and a knowledge of techniques that ensure the delicate flavours of the blossoms, buds, roots, leaves, seeds and stems are preserved. In part, the combinations they use are a celebration of time honoured rituals across the world and of those who have worked at My Cup of Tea.

Their tisane blends are available in loose leaf and in muslin tea bags. The handmade teabags are designed to be re-infused in a cup up to three times.

Workshop will last two hours. Tea, coffee and a selection of Pophams pastries will be included in the ticket price.

There are 10 spaces available on Sunday 11th October at 11-1pm at our studio above our London Fields shop - Pophams Home, 197 Richmond Road, London, E8 3NJ.
