Honeybush & African Tea|South & East African Black Tea| Rooibos Herbal Tea



African tea, and flowers are a delicacy for sure.

South Africa is known for Rooibos and Honey Bush tea with several tea estates producing black tea. Most of the black tea is consumed locally. Rooibos and Honeybush teas are very common throughout South Africa
Africa is one of the major tea producers. Most of the tea connoisseurs are familiar with names like Assam, Ceylon, Darjeeling, Fujian, yet when Kenya is mentioned coffee is the first word that is associated . In 1998 Kenya was the largest black tea exporter in the World. Many Indian teas are blended with African teas from Kenya, Malawi, Zimbabwe.

SIGN UP FOR MY MAILING LIST:

Be sure to sign up for my mailing list I will from time to time offer free magical gifts. I'll also have a bit of fairy advise on mermaid, goddess, whimsical angel pictures, and other fantasy delights, gifts and ideas! Or sign up just to say, "Hi!"

Sign up 'this month' on my mailing list and receive a free printable letter from the tooth fairy. Ahhh yes, I know this tooth fairy well, her name is Dallyanna. She is most eloquent with lavender bows and ribbons attached to tiny pink satin roses on a whimsical sky blue chiffon dress. Her hair is held fast by a wreath of stephanotis and lobelia blossoms found from trees on "African" Mountains where she is often seen traveling. She fills the air with laughter and always makes me happy. Soft fairy dust meets her pathway as mist wherever she flies as one might suspect. Once in awhile she flutters by just to say hello and offer a bit of conversation or to share her love of poetry. We sit at a round glass table topped with a white linen tablecloth and dine on green tea and crumpets. I always have special jams and jellies on hand to impress my dear guest of magic. Dallyanna often advises me on what gifts my friends, like you, might enjoy. We have a splendid time together as she shares legends of mermaids and her adventures of gifting children in exchange for their treasured tiny teeth.

My other gift to you this month is a "legends of mermaids" drawing. You can print it out for cards; transfer it to shrink art and use as a magnet or sun catcher; use it as a coloring page or reduce the size for clip art or stationary accent, just to name a few ideas.
