Tea Blending Party.

I've heard of a tea party before but never of a tea blending party.  Briar Winters from Marble and Milkweed has put together some ingredients and recipes for a splendid soiree to make gift-ready custom tea blends.  She even made an eclectic tea blending get-together playlist to get you in the mood.

Here are 3 of her recipes:

• Modern Chai: cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks, pink peppercorn, rose petals, ginger.
• Vanilla Rooibos: red tea, roasted cacao nibs, vanilla bean pods, saffron threads.
• Fennel Mint: green tea, macha tea, fennel seeds, dried spearmint.

I've never made my own tea before, have you?
