Christmas Tea in Carousel Caddy, 60 Bags

The caddy arrives filled, so it is ready to give straight away: add a ribbon and you are done. And because it is reusable, a piece of Christmas stays behind after the tea.

• 1 reusable carousel-style Christmas caddy
• 60 individually paper-wrapped Christmas Tea bags
• Design with tartan check, golden accents and a Father Christmas illustration
• Ingredients: black tea 83 %, star anise 5 %, hibiscus 5 %, ginger 4 %, cinnamon flavouring 1.5 %, clove flavouring 1.5 %
• Weight: 267 g
• Packaging labelled in English

Put one tea bag in a cup and pour freshly boiled water over it. Take the bag out after 3 to 5 minutes. Drink it with or without milk, exactly as you prefer.

With 60 bags you have a supply that lasts well beyond a single Advent Sunday. One cup in the morning, one in the afternoon with biscuits, and there is still plenty left when visitors turn up unannounced. Because each bag is wrapped on its own, you can simply take two or three along to the office or on the train.

This is a gift for tea drinkers who appreciate a reusable Christmas caddy. First the tea gets drunk, then the caddy earns its place on a shelf, on the sideboard or between candles and fir branches. For family, friends and colleagues it is a present that actually gets used rather than tidied away.

As something to bring along to an Advent visit, as part of a gift hamper or for a Secret Santa round at work, it does the job on its own, because it already looks festive without extra wrapping paper. And if you drink a lot of tea yourself, it simply stays in your own kitchen.

Keep the caddy where you make your tea: the bags are then within reach and the carousel design brings a bit of Christmas to that corner of the kitchen.

For gifting, think in combinations: the caddy, a good mug and a few biscuits make a small hamper that smells of Christmas. If you like, add a card noting that the tea wants 3 to 5 minutes and tastes good with or without milk. Since the packaging is labelled in English, a short line like that helps anyone brewing it.

And once the last bag has been brewed, the caddy comes back out next December as Christmas decoration.
