Tea Time Pumpkin Spice Tea Latte Recipe

A very special Sweet Harvest Pumpkin Tea Latte recipe, inspired by my visit to the Celestial Seasonings Headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. Read all the way to the end for an incredible $100+ value Tea Lovers Giveaway!
Pumpkin Spice Tea Latte Recipe from dineanddish.net

This past week I had the chance to visit the Celestial Seasonings Headquarters, one of the largest specialty tea manufacturers in North America. One of my favorite things about my job is getting to see the “behind the scenes” of brands I love and use everyday. Opportunities like these…to meet the people and see the hard work and dedication that goes into bringing my favorite cup of tea to life is something I really love. I could never imagine all the thought and effort that goes into something that gives me my most simple of pleasures each day, like tea time.

Tea TimeThe people at Celestial Seasonings were as warm and welcoming as their tea… they made us feel so comfortable and appreciated. Driving up to the facilities was especially humbling as the entire company was standing outside, holding signs and cheering our arrival. I was so touched and I know the other bloggers I was with felt the same way. For a corporation this big to stop their production line to welcome us is a pretty big deal.

Celestial Seasonings Blogger Welcome

We took in a lot of great information during our day, but I’d like to share 5 fun facts I learned while on my tour. I hope you can learn a few things about Celestial Seasonings and you just might learn how you’ve been making your tea wrong all these years, like me!

Top Five Fun Facts About Celestial Seasonings Tea

 

1.  We had the chance to do a tea tasting while at the Celestial Seasonings Headquarters. Did you know there is such a thing as a “Super Taster“? Well Celestial Seasonings very own blendmaster, Charlie Baden, has been the expert hand behind Celestial Seasonings Teas for over 30 years. I was fascinated to learn that Charlie can blindly taste teas and can tell you everything that is in his cup and can even tell you what region the blend came from… all from taste! Isn’t that incredible? Needless to say, I was not nearly as successful with taste testing as Charlie is!

2.  Tea is one of the most popular beverages in the world, second only to water.  In many cultures it has become a vital part of everyday living. In some, serving tea is wrapped in ceremony and ritual, while in others, sharing tea is a time for fellowship or refreshment. I know for me, tea is a part of my special mid-day chill out time and part of my bedtime routine. I love a cup of Sleepytime Extra before going to bed. How about you?

Tea-Fact

3.  The use of tea in the culinary world is quickly gaining popularity. We had the pleasure of enjoying food created by chefs using Celestial Seasonings as an ingredient. Towards the end of the day we  also enjoyed very special “tea cocktails”.  My friend Amy shared the recipe for my favorite cocktail we had over on her blog..check out the Jammin’ Lemon Ginger Drop recipe!

4. Celestial Seasonings cares deeply about working with those who use sustainable farming practices. They also have made the environment and future of our planet a priority… Celestial Seasonings uses natural fiber, chlorine-free tea bags that are biodegradable and compostable – making them better for you and for the planet. The unique pillow-style tea bag doesn’t need a string, tag, staple or individual wrapper, which helps save 3.5 million pounds of waste from entering landfills every year!

Sleepytime-line seed-to-sip

5.  I love Celestial Seasonings packaging, don’t you? We had the opportunity to learn how each box of tea comes to life through artist illustrations. The original paintings from the Celestial Seasonings tea boxes are displayed in the front lobby of the Celestial Seasonings visitors center. Did you know if you are in Boulder, you too can take a tour and learn all the great things I did? I highly recommend it! It’s a fascinating company to see the behind the scenes of.

artists-painting

Bonus fact…I am one of those people who always just kept my tea bag in my tea, even while I drank it. I just assumed the longer the bag was in the hot water, the more flavorful it would be. I was completely wrong. Here’s how the folks at Celestial Seasonings (who you know, know a thing or two about steepology) suggest we do it. 

Watch the clock, not the color. Never brew tea by color if you want the perfect cup. Some teas brew light, others dark. Always brew by the clock — Celestial Seasonings recommends three to five minutes for green and black teas, four to six minutes for herb teas and six minutes for wellness teas.

Squeeze the bag. Some people have debated — to squeeze or not to squeeze. Celestial Seasonings recommends squeezing the bag. Why? Tea leaves can absorb up to seven times their weight in water and compressing the bag enhances color and flavor. So, give a gentle squeeze to the tea bag before removing from the cup.

    I think many of us grew up drinking Celestial Seasonings, so I enjoyed your post! My mom had tins with the Sleepytime art and I remember looking at them over and over as a kid.

    Also, I know you linked to the Wikipedia article, but I wanted to point out that being a supertaster is not the same as being really awesome at tasting 😉 Supertasters generally don’t like bitterness especially in things like teas – it sounds more like Charlie has a perfect palate.

    I also enjoy Raspberry Zinger nice and hot in the winter with, seemed coconut cream, and brown sugar! Delicious!

    I drink one of their Sleepytimes everyday, be it “Extra” “Sinus Soother” or the original. 🙂 I usually splurge on a holiday blend or two….and I’m also super excited to try out their newest teas, the ones with lavender and aloe!

    P.S. Their factory tours are so much fun. 🙂 I can’t believe you didn’t mention the mint room–eye-watering good!

    You can do this using your Keurig also if you have a resuable kcup. Fill the kcup with the tea, or place both tea bags in your cup if you don’t have a kcup just for loose leaf tea. Brew it using the smallest cup.

    I do this all the time.

H is for...high!
.
It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.
.
I can’t wait until travel becomes a regular part of life again. I’ve missed it so much!

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!

E is for...Excitement!
.
There’s a lot of excitement in Kansas City as our beloved @chiefs head back to the Super Bowl this weekend! #runitback 🏈
.
It’s so strange because winning the super bowl last year was the last “normal” thing that happened before the pandemic hit. We went from a city full of excitement to shutting down and sheltering in place. Maybe when we win and bring the trophy home this year, it’ll be the start of something great. Let’s hope!

Who are you rooting for Sunday? Chiefs, Buccaneers or tacos? 😂

D is for... Dreary (and Dog)
February has always been my least favorite month. I have a special name for this month that may start with another not so nice F word...🤭.
.
In Kansas, the sun usually doesn't shine that often, it's cold, and just kind of gray and blah.
.
My indoor jungle makes me happy though...especially this space in my office. Houseplants almost makes me forget we’re in the “F” month 😂.
.
Also, my dog (my favorite d word) would not sit still for a picture when I had my tripod set up, but I finally caught her sitting on her bed and had to catch a picture with my phone. Swipe and you’ll see she is much overdue for a haircut.

B is for Books! Are you a big reader? I wasn’t really a reader growing up. Well, I take that back. In junior high I plowed through the Sweet Valley High series (anyone else?) 😊 And when I was in elementary school I would bust my butt to get to the highest level in the SRA Reading box before anyone else. But I wasn’t a kid who you’d find with their nose in a book, ever.
.

It wasn’t until I was an adult, and my kids began to sleep through the night, that I started reading for fun. Now, I read all the time and it’s one of my favorite pastimes. I love talking books with people and sharing recommendations. I really don’t watch TV, so books, especially right now, is my main form of entertainment.
.

This is why for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photography challenge, I knew that Books would be my B. It’s my favorite B word (beating out Bullet Journaling, Bread, Blankets, Be Happy, etc).

A is for Alone. I think one of the hardest things for me to get used to this past year is rarely being alone. My husband used to travel all the time. My school aged kids were in school all day while I worked. I’d even get several days a month in a hotel room by myself for my work travels. I like my alone time and it’s definitely something I miss.
.

I’m easily distracted so you will usually find me working in complete silence…maybe just the hum of my essential oil diffuser and the sound of my fingers on my keyboard. I need the quiet and treasure silence.
.

With that said, I’ve loved the extra time with my family - and we’ve all learned over the past several months how to give each other space and recognize when we need that space. As of today, my kids all are back to school full time in person 😢. Nick is still working from home and will be for the time being, but now the aloneness feels strange. I’m sure we’ll get used to this “new normal” yet again!
