The name of the game is fun. If that makes sense to you, then I have the perfect tea for one set for you.

Short of a tea pot requiring batteries, this is about as alive as one of these things is ever going to get. Bright red saucer. Big, red hand painted stripes on the tea cup and a mix and match of stripes on the tea pot. The white spout sticks out like the neck of a swan and the handle follows suit. The otherwise completely white lid has is further camouflaged with a red knob that could easily be mistaken for the nose of a clown. Pardon me; it’s scarlet, not red!

Tea is no laughing matter though and don’t be fooled, the ‘HuesNBrews Stripes Scarlet Tea for One’ set is a seriously high quality product, if not entirely serious in appearance.

The body is made from high fired ceramic, which in plain old English means that it is dishwasher and microwave proof. With the sturdy, easy to grip handles, I would go so far as to say it is idiot proof too!

My review might seem frivolous but this tea pot has frivolity written all over it. Tea for one needn’t be door and boring. Tea is said to lift one’s spirits. If the tea doesn’t manage, this frolicking tea set certainly will.

HuesNBrews does make additional accessories in the same style.

In case you are new to the concept, a tea for one set is a clever little thing. Both for storage and use, the tea pot lives inside the tea cup. Make the tea with all the bits still together and the tea pot warms the cup. Pour your first cup and you “A” for away.

The HuesNBrews Stripes Scarlet Tea for One, like most similar products has a capacity of 15 ounces which will see to it that you enjoy two ordinary sized cups of tea.

Go on, be daring, be silly. All work and no tea (in a scarlet tea cup), makes Jane a dull girl.

Tea For One – A Ritual Fit For Royalty
The restorative properties of tea heal the sick, warm the soul and tease the palate with the simplest of pleasures. Do make tea for one a daily ritual. Personalize it so it has special meaning. Look for a teapot and tea cup with saucer that is in synch with your tastes. You’ll want a tea cozy to keep your teapot good and hot when in use. A tea cozy, for the uninitiated, is a type of cover that holds in the heat of water in the teapot. If you prefer an infuser to a teabag, look for one in metal or glass in which to place tea leaves.

Then, rummage through several tea speciality shops with due diligence until you find a collection of teas that fit your moods and tastes. Learn how to brew tea properly. Start with cold fresh water heated to a rolling boil. Pour the boiling water carefully into the teapot. Never brew tea directly in the teapot. Tannic acid in tea stains the inside of the pot which then collects and alters the tea’s flavor. Place your teapot covered with your tea cozy and your cup and saucer on a sturdy tray beside your favorite side table and chair. Pour your tea with regal elegance and enjoy that first slow sip of the dark elixir that brings tranquility back into your world.

Teas For Different Times
For morning people, choose an Irish or English Breakfast tea. Earl Grey might be wonderful for an afternoon “tea-for-one” soiree. For a quicker jolt back, try Russian Tea or any of the broad selection of teas of India, China or Surinam. You can find herbal teas to suit any whim.

A vast majority of people drink tea on a regular basis, making it one of the most popular hot drinks across the Globe. In some beliefs and cultures, tea is a vital part of a ceremony, as it is regarded as a vital component of a spiritual life.

Tea comes with many flavors and smells, which means that it is important to determine what type of tea you prefer whether it is black teas, smoked teas, green teas, or even herbal teas. Herbal teas are not technically regarded as tea, however, if you need to avoid caffeine, you will find that this is the perfect substitute.

When you have chosen the type of tea that you want for whatever ritual, make sure that your tea is loose, which means no teabags. By having loose tea you are able to interact with the leaf of the tea which it of vital importance to establish a connection with the tea spirit and yourself.

Once you have found your loose tea, you need to next consider your water. Even though you may want to use the water from your tap, which may provide an earthy taste, you may want to consider using bottled water, unless of course you have your own well. Have someone help you pick the type of water you want. Do you want your water imported? If so, from where? How about water from a spring, or a glacier? You might even want to think about rain water, or taking water from a stream or spring that you know is unpolluted. Whatever you chose it is important that you are conscious of your choice.

Of course once you have the tea and the water established the next important step is to clear your mind of any obligations you need to do. Free yourself of any guilt and worry and spend the next 30 minutes in a relaxed state of mind. When you are making your tea, remove any distractions that surround the area you will be working at.

When you have everything set on your tea alter, give thanks. Invite the sacred to join you. Only when you are ready should you then pour the tea making sure to remain silent throughout. This is a time to reflect.

As you cradle your cup notice the color of the tea leaf, its shape and the smell it produces. Engage all your senses throughout. As you take your first sip think about the taste. Do you like it? Take another sip. Do you find that with each sip, the tea gets bitter or sweeter over time?

Once you have finished your tea for one sit still for a moment to contemplate the ceremony that you have undertaken. Give thanks. When you wash your tea tools away, do you find that you have slowed down, taking your time with everything, instead of rushing? Now that your senses are engaged and your mind and body stilled and refreshed, you will be ready to continue with your active life. You will find that the mystery of tea will remain in your spirit.
