Tea With A Kick & More

Here are a few miscellaneous items to get your Monday underway.

The New York Times writes about tea again - that's three substantial articles in about the last week. Tea With a Little Kick appeared Friday. It's a look at that place where tea and alcohol meet. I've written a few brief posts on this very same topic. Here's the most recent one.

Here's an article in the British press about a chain of tea shops set to open over in that part of the world. Ringtons is expected to open as many as 100 tea and coffee shops in the UK, apparently within the next ten years.

Speaking of tea and coffee shops, there's one called Starbucks - you may have heard of them. Perhaps you've also heard that they're raising the prices of their beverages. AP reports that "prices of its lattes, cappuccinos, drip coffee and other drinks" will go up by about a nickel.

Last up is a site I ran across the other day for Bouteaque, who bill themselves as a merchant of "tea-inspired bath & body products."
