Tea Time!

Last week I was able to attend a great cocktail event hosted at The Grace Hotel. HELPS Teas introduced a line of cocktails, made from their amazing teas. I tried their TLV cocktail, as well as their Double Tea-zzer, both of which were delicious. I left the event with a bag of free tea, which I can't wait to make. Their teas are unique in the fact that they aid digestion, relaxation, and other similar things. Tea is always good for you, but these teas are even better! Check out some of their cocktail recipes below.
