Whether you're headed to the mountains, beach, or just visiting family this summer, there’s one travel companion you shouldn’t leave behind: your favorite tea. At Full Moon Tea Company, we know how comforting, energizing, and grounding a familiar cup can be—especially when you're far from home.
Here are our top tips to make sure your tea travels just as well as you do.
1. Go Loose or Go Bagged?
If you’re tight on space or hopping from place to place, tea bags might be your easiest option—lightweight, mess-free, and pre-portioned. But if you're a true loose-leaf lover, just bring a small airtight tin of your favorite blend and a compact infuser or tea filter bags.
2. Pack a Travel Infuser or Bottle
No matter how far you roam, a tea infuser bottle or portable tea tumbler makes brewing a breeze. Look for one with a built-in strainer and double insulation to keep your drink hot or cold for hours. It's perfect for cold-steeping teas like Secret Garden Mint or Strawberry Honeysuckle White while you’re exploring.
3. Cold Brew on the Road
No kettle? No problem. Cold brewing is the ultimate lazy brew. Just steep your tea in cold water for 4–8 hours in the fridge (or a cooler if you’re camping), and boom—refreshing, flavorful tea ready to sip.
Pro tip: Cold brew your tea the night before a road trip and pour it into a mason jar or thermos to take on the go.
4. BYOT (Bring Your Own Tea) to Hotels & Airbnbs
Even if the place you’re staying offers coffee, it’s always a gamble with tea. Bring a few of your favorite blends in a small pouch so you're never without a comforting cup. Most hotel rooms have electric kettles or at least coffee machines you can run plain hot water through.
5. Use Tea as a Moment of Pause
Travel can be chaotic—but tea can help anchor you. Whether it's sipping Evening Peach Orchard on a balcony at sunset or making a mindful cup in the morning before sightseeing, tea becomes a portable ritual to help you slow down and savor the journey.
Wherever You Wander… Bring the Magic of Tea
Travel expands your horizons, and tea brings you home—no matter where your feet land. With a little preparation and your favorite Full Moon Tea by your side, you can keep your tea rituals alive from trail to train, campsite to coastline.
