It’s mid-June, and the weather simply screams for iced tea. It’s not quite summer break yet (let’s be real, I don’t get one now that I’m no longer a student), but iced tea brings that chill, vacation-y vibe to any moment. And did you know? June is officially National Iced Tea Month ! That got me thinking: what does iced tea look like around the world? Hop in—we’re taking your taste buds on a global tour!🍹✈️ 1.

Served over crushed ice, it’s as photogenic as it is delicious. Try it if you like:   Chai lattes or bold flavors with a sweet kick. 2.

Also known as boba tea , this chewy, funky iced tea is a sensation worldwide. As an Asian, bubble tea has always been my go-to comfort drink.

Southern Sweet Tea Born in the American South, this classic is brewed strong and sweetened while hot, then poured over ice. It's simple, nostalgic, and perfect with lemon—or a splash of bourbon. For the best brew, use Pretty Pekoecious , our signature Orange Pekoe tea. Try it if you like:  Old-school charm and unapologetically sweet drinks lol. 5. Japanese Mugicha (Barley Tea) No tea quite hits the nostalgia spot like mugicha. Made from roasted barley instead of tea leaves, it is nutty, caffeine-free, and super refreshing. It’s a staple in Japanese households during summer. Mm-hmm — makes me want to hop on a plane to Japan right now! Try it if you like:  Toasty, mellow flavors or want a caffeine-free option .

After a long day, you just want a comforting cup of tea—but which is better: loose leaf or tea bags ? It’s like choosing between chocolate and vanilla ice-cream, both have their perks. It all comes down to what you’re after. Let’s break it down to help you pick the perfect brew! I. Loose Leaf Tea Rich flavour and aroma Loose leaf tea is made from larger, whole tea leaves that expand fully when steeped. This gives you a richer, more flavorful cup with complex aromas. At Cue The Tea, we carefully source each leaf to ensure premium quality and full flavor in every brew. That’s why our Cue Premium teas (say our Darjeeling) come in loose leaf form only—because great tea deserves to be brewed the right way! Darling, It's Darjeeling loose leaf tea from Cue Preimum tea line More hustle, but worth it! Brewing loose leaf tea is a bit like preparing for a tea ceremony—minus the fancy robes. You’ll need an infuser or strainer, but that extra step gives you more control over your brew. It’s the perfect opportunity to slow down and appreciate the magic of tea. If you're new to loose leaf, try using our pipe and basket tea strainers from Cue Essentials for a smooth, effortless experience. Best For? If you’re all about bold, flavorful tea and enjoy a bit of tea-brewing fun, loose leaf is your go-to. It's the perfect choice for those who don’t mind a bit of extra effort and prefer their tea with a dash of flair. (Plus, your taste buds will thank you.) II. Tea Bags Cue The Tea's A New Earl In Town tea bags Less space, less flavours Traditionally, tea bags often contain smaller, broken tea leaves, or "tea dust," which limits their ability to infuse deeply compared to loose leaf tea. However, at Cue, we make sure the quality is the same across the board for our products. While flat tea bags may not have the space for leaves to stretch out like they’re on a spa day, we have carefully selected the right amount of tea to give you a satisfying, flavorful brew. Convenience over complexity Tea bags are quick and simple to use. Just drop the bag into hot water, steep, and voila—no need for extra tools. This makes tea bags the most convenient option, especially for busy people or when you're on the go. Best For? If you’re looking for convenience and speed (or simply feeling a little lazy), tea bags are the way to go. They offer an easy, hassle-free way to enjoy your tea with minimal effort. Loose Leaf Tea Tea Bags Pros - Rich, complex flavour - Higher quality whole leaves - Greater variety - Quick and easy to prepare - Widely available - Convenient, minimal tools Cons - Slightly more preparation needed - Can be more expensive - Less flavourful - Lower quality - Limited variety A comparison chart of the pros and cons of loose leaf tea versus tea bags (not specific to Cue products) The final word: Drink what you like The choice between loose leaf and tea bags comes down to your priorities. Loose leaf offers richer flavor and more control, perfect for tea lovers who value quality. Tea bags are all about convenience and speed, great for a quick fix. Ultimately, it’s about how the tea makes you feel—so try both and see what works best for you!

So, you’re ready to dive into the world of tea—awesome choice! Tea isn’t just a drink; it’s a wholesome experience filled with flavors, rituals and a touch of mystery. If you’re curious about tea’s endless flavors and types, here’s your quick-start guide! What is Tea? Tea comes from the leaves of a plant called Camellia sinensis.  The flavors of green, black, white, and oolong teas arise from different processing methods, giving each type its own unique vibe and character. Plant of Camellia Sinensis The Big Six: Types of Tea Here’s a friendly breakdown of 6 main tea types and why each one deserves a place in your cup: 1. Green Tea Green tea is like a refreshing breeze in the morning. Light and often grassy or sweet, it’s packed with antioxidants. The leaves are steamed or pan-fired to keep their color. Popular types include Sencha  (Japan), Matcha  (powdered), and Dragon Well  (China). 2. Black Tea For a bold, rich flavor, black tea is your go-to. Fully oxidized, it’s strong and stands up well to milk and sugar. Classic types are Assam , Darjeeling  (both from India), and Earl Grey  (with a hint of bergamot). Our Cue The Tea’s New Earl In Town has extra bergamot oil for an even bolder flavor! Cue The Tea's New Earl In Town loose leaf tea, with extra bergamot oil 3. White Tea White tea is delicate, slightly sweet, and floral, thanks to minimal processing—often just young tea buds and leaves that are dried naturally. If you want a super subtle tea, white tea is perfect for you. Popular options include Silver Needle  and White Peony . 4. Oolong Tea Oolong is a versatile tea that sits between green and black, with flavors that range from floral and fruity to rich and toasty (yes, probably the most adventurous kid around). It’s partially oxidized, resulting in a unique colour and depth. There's a reason why oolong is often called the “wine of tea”, as each sip is like a surprise party for your taste buds! For a great start, try Tie Guan Yin  or Da Hong Pao. 5. Pu-erh Tea Pu-erh is like the wise elder of the tea world, but don’t be fooled—it’s not just for the elderly! Many younger tea enthusiasts enjoy sipping Pu-erh after a heavy meal. Aged and fermented, Pu-erh has a deep, earthy flavor that grows richer over time. Some varieties age for years, making the flavor smooth and mellow. 6. Herbal Teas (Tisanes) While technically not tea, herbal teas offer a wide range of flavor options, from floral to fruity to spicy. Caffeine-free, they’re ideal for a relaxing cup anytime. Common favorites include chamomile  (for relaxation), peppermint  (refreshing), and hibiscus  (tart and vibrant). Herbal teas are great for unwinding or adding variety to your day. Starting Your Tea Journey Ready to start sipping? At Cue, our curated bundles feature the finest organic teas at great prices. Whether you love classic blacks or prefer caffeine-free herbals, we've got you covered! My personal favorite is definitely the Finer Than Wine bundle, which features single estate Darjeeling and Sencha. It's a luxurious journey in a cup, truly finer than wine without the actual wine and alcohol!

If you think all green teas are created equal, let me stop you right there: they’re not. And when it comes to Japanese green tea, sencha stands in a league of its own. At Cue The Tea, we've been on a journey of tasting, sourcing, brewing (and yes, occasionally messing up the water temperature!). Through all this experimentation, one tea keeps calling us back: sencha. It's bright, fresh, and full of character, everything we love about a truly exceptional tea! In response to Japanese Green Tea Co.'s post on the many benefits of sencha, we couldn’t agree more. Yes, sencha is packed with antioxidants and offers numerous health benefits, but we think there's so much more to this tea than just its health properties. Let's dive in and explore why sencha is a true standout! It all starts with the soil We were excited to read Japanese Green Tea Co.'s mention of how tea’s environment shapes its flavor. Like their post suggests, great tea begins with great soil. The best sencha comes from single-estate gardens where the soil is rich, and the environment supports the leaves' fullest potential. When tea plants grow in harmony with nature, you can taste that balance in every sip. It’s that depth and nuance from a well-tended tea garden that we cherish in our pursuit of the perfect cup. We see sencha as a reflection of the land it comes from—whether it’s the highland gardens of Uji or the rolling hills of Kagoshima. The unique environment and care that go into growing these leaves are what make each cup of sencha so memorable. Inserting Chef's Kiss here! The art of deep steaming Japanese Green Tea Co. talks about the different types of sencha and how they vary in flavor. We love how they mentioned fukamushi —or deep-steamed sencha—as one of the key varieties. Here’s where we think we can add to the conversation: while fukamushi  is indeed a process that reduces astringency and adds richness, it’s also a defining characteristic of what makes certain sencha varieties more complex and satisfying than others. The extended steaming time breaks down the leaves more than standard sencha, resulting in a richer, almost velvety mouthfeel and an infusion that boasts a deep emerald colour. Mm-hmm. Wait up, but it’s not just about the appearance. Deep steaming enhances the tea’s natural sweetness and gives the flavor more body. You’ll find layers of gentle umami, subtle astringency, a touch of grassy bitterness, and a long, sweet finish. It’s the kind of tea you don’t just sip—you sit with it. The vibrantly green sencha loose leaves A fragrance worth praising for One of our favorite things about fukamushi sencha is its aroma. The tender, vibrant leaves release a fragrance that’s both sweet and earthy—almost like matcha .  If you’ve ever imagined washing your face with ceremonial-grade matcha and manuka honey (not that anyone really does), you’ll grasp the heavenly intensity of sencha. It’s a fragrance that invites you to pause, inhale deeply and savour the moment If you’re curious about what makes sencha so special, or you’re looking to explore Japanese green tea on a deeper level, we’d love to share the journey with you. Join us in discovering the richness of Japanese tea now!
