To Our YoTeas Family,

It's hard to fathom what we are presently experiencing as a country and globally. Covid-19 showed up with a vengeance and has now inflicted over a million and claimed thousands of lives. With so much information out there from the media and the news, it's difficult to decipher what's real and what's false. But, what we know for certain is, we've been attacked by an invisible enemy. The global response has varied so vastly, with some hoarding at the grocery stores with others plainly disregarding the social distancing and stay at home orders. Clearly, this is not something we were prepared for, but we must grasp that this is a serious situation that we will not come out of it the same. Humanity will never be the same...

But what we must ensure to help us survive is that we're practicing healthy habits such as, proper hand-washing, sanitizing areas that are frequently touched and keeping our immune systems strong to protect ourselves from this invisible and unpredictable enemy. Some of what medical doctors are saying will help minimize our exposure and strengthen our immune systems is improve our quality of sleep, avoid tobacco, consume less alcohol, improve your gut health, become more physically active, soak up the sunshine(vitamin-D), reduce your stress level, consume a daily supplement, vitamin C, Zinc, Elderberry, fruits(oranges, lemon, blueberries), lots of liquids to include, alkaline water and hot teas. As we continue to experience unprecedented loss of life and be attacked by this virus please, Visit YoTeas To Learn More About The Health Benefits Of Loose Leaf Teas 

Thank You For Your Continued Support,

From The YoTeas Family To You and your Family, Please Stay Safe and Healthy.

We live in a culture where most people love the social habit of coffee consumption. To most, tea consumption is simply placing a tea bag in a cup of hot water, adding some sugar or honey particularly when they don't feel good. Not the same excitement as sitting in a coffee shop and drinking a fresh cup of coffee while socializing with friends, or having a business meeting. The association between the social aspect of tea versus coffee is part of what drives most towards choosing coffee over tea. But In recent years, many are discovering the excitement in the variety of teas they can choose from and the endless flavor profiles and health benefits in consuming loose leaf teas, especially green teas. When you truly begin to explore and experiment with the different varieties of loose leaf teas, the excitement can quickly grow. 

Why would you choose loose leaf teas? Outside of its obvious health benefits, the many combinations you can choose, create and blend together to brew your perfect of cup of tea are endless. And just for the record, tea bags often include ingredients you'd probably rather not ingest. However, If you would like to begin exploring the world of loose leaf teas Visit Us At YoTeas and experience why so many are now turning to loose leaf teas as their daily beverage of choice. 

Tea is an experience which takes us on a personal journey with ourselves or in the company of others. We all drink tea for various reasons, some for pure pleasure, some for socializing(tea time), others for the health benefits. Whatever your reason for consuming loose leaf tea, there is no doubt that tea is a delicious, healthy beverage. The flavors of different teas and its caffeine levels will depend primarily on how the tea leaf is processed when picked.

We thought this article would be helpful in shedding some light on the correct tea pairing! Many of us are still just beginning to learn of the concept of pairing tea with our food – proper, substantial meals that pair well. And yet, in the East they have drunk tea with their main dishes for centuries.

The art of tea pairing is still very much evolving in the West… but just as good food augments a good wine, and wine brings out the flavors of your dish, so too with teas.
The right tea can truly enhance the taste of the food on your plate… equally, get the pairing wrong, and the tea can be overwhelmed by the food (or the food drowned by too fulsome a tea).

Black teas with their robust flavors pair well with hearty, rich foods such as roast meats like beef, lamb and venison or heavy pasta dishes like lasagna.

Green teas with their earthy, vegetative palettes combine well with vegetarian dishes, salads, mild green curries, and light chicken dishes.

White teas tend to be very gentle, and if served with too rich a food will seem totally tasteless. Yet it would be a shame to miss their oh-so-subtle aromas. So these are best paired with very light foods such as white fish like sea bass or mild cheeses and desserts.

Oolong teas tend to vary but are in general quite smoky and complex and therefore pair perfectly with herby dishes, fruity desserts, and smoked cheeses and meats.

Fruit and scented teas are perfect for complex desserts, cakes and dark chocolate! Some even blend wonderfully with spicy meats – like Earl Grey for instance.
While full-bodied Chai teas match exotic Turkish sweet-meats and Indian pastries. Note: You can google this article for more insight!
