As the leaves turn, the air grows crisp, and pumpkin-spiced everything starts to appear, there’s nothing better than a warm, fragrant cup of tea to make the season feel cozy. Fall isn’t just a time for sweaters and candlelight—it’s also the perfect season to explore comforting, warming teas that wrap you in a hug with every sip.
Spotlight on Seasonal Favorites
Some teas just scream fall, and at Full Moon Tea, we have a few that are perfect for the season:
- Maple Pumpkin Spice – Rooibos meets cinnamon, ginger, turmeric, nutmeg, and a hint of granulated maple syrup. Naturally caffeine-free, this blend is like autumn in a cup.
- Apple-achian Chai – Sweet apples, honeybush, and warming spices like cinnamon, ginger, star anise, and cloves make this chai cozy, fragrant, and a perfect morning or evening treat.
- Pear & Ginger Green Tea – Bright and slightly sweet, this green tea blend brings the perfect balance of fruitiness and spice to your fall tea ritual.
Brewing Tips for Maximum Flavor
- Use fresh, filtered water heated to the correct temperature for each tea type—green teas slightly cooler, black and rooibos teas near boiling.
- Steep long enough to release flavors, but don’t overdo it. Rooibos and herbal teas handle longer steeping, while green teas need a shorter time to avoid bitterness.
- Enhance your tea with seasonal touches: a cinnamon stick, a slice of fresh apple, or a dash of nutmeg adds aroma and visual appeal.
Pairing Ideas
- Cozy pastries like spiced muffins or apple scones.
- Seasonal fruits such as figs, pears, or roasted apples.
- Warm, non-alcoholic mocktails featuring your favorite tea as the base.
The Ritual of Fall
Fall teas are more than just flavors—they’re a seasonal ritual. Take a moment each day to brew a cup, savor the aroma, and let the warmth fill you. It’s a simple way to slow down, reconnect with the season, and enjoy a little comfort in your busy day.
Embrace the season with your favorite fall teas, and let every sip warm your soul as the leaves change.
