Tea lovers love TEA obviously. But if you dont know much about tea how do you know what to give them. Gift giving seems to be around all year long, not only around the holidays. There are birthdays, valentines day, national BFF day etc, etc. To some, selecting the right gift can be a hassle but I have came up with a list of my top 5 must haves for tea lovers either for yourself or as a gift for the tea lover in your life. All the products below (except #5) can be found at any of your local stores. I love Amazon and purchase through them a lot. You can get almost all these items through Amazon, and if you have amazon prime you get free 2 day shipping. Perfect for those last minute gifts!

#1 Teas!
There is a plethora of options when it comes to teas. It’s a little easier choosing the “perfect” tea when you know what type of tea they like. Some people prefer loose leaf tea over bagged teas, green over black etc. If you don’t know do not be discouraged. You can get them a tea sampler set. This is always a good choice, it can have a little bit of different kinds of teas. Some of which they might have never tried before. They will thank you for that.
#2 Tea Mugs
I think the next most important thing to tea lovers besides tea are the mugs. You have to have the right mug for the right mood. Just like teas there are several kinds of teacups. You can get a traditional fancy porcelain teacup with saucer. There are also mugs with a tea infuser inside which are perfect for loose teas. Another great mug for tea is a travel tea mug. These are awesome for loose leaf lovers that want to take their teas to go.
#3 Tea Tins/Box
Storing tea is very important. Tea lovers need a special place for all their teas whether its a tea tin or a tea storage box to hold their tea bags. There are several kind of storage compartments to choose from and one can never have enough.
#4 Electric Water Kettle
If they don’t already own one, water kettles are a nice thing to have for tea lovers. There are several kinds of kettles out on the market from very budget friendly traditional ones to electric kettles. The latter may be more costly but for good reason. Some teas depending on their type are meant to be steeped with hotter water temperatures than others. Some electric kettles have vanished the guessing game when it comes to heating up water for tea. They have water temperature options making it easier for tea lovers to heat the water to the proper temperature without ruining their tea.
#5 Tea Subscription
In todays world you can get a subscription for almost anything, including tea. Most of these subscriptions have different options in length of the subscription and the kinds of teas they offer. This would be a great way for tea lovers to have something to look forward to every month. They will be forever grateful…or as long as the subscription last at least.
So there you have it. My top 5 must haves for tea lovers. This list can go on and on but I wanted to make sure it was not overwhelming.
What are your must haves when it comes to your teas?

I would probably add to that list a good water filter (good water makes such a big difference in taste) as well as great tea infusing equipment! My favourites are glass tea infusers because you can see the tea unfurl inside which is soo satisfying!!

Hi Tatjana!
Yes you are so right about good quality water making a difference to the tea taste. I have tried and failed several times, and yes a good water filter would be a great addition to this list. Infusers are also needed, although I don’t have any in glass. That’s next on my list, I have always thought how cool they look but never got one. Thank you for stopping by and for your great input 🙂
