Solzi Espresso Tonic

Quite possibly the best afternoon pick me up ever created and canned. I love a floater of crisp coke on top with a lime wedge. I am a Solzi evangelist.

Heist Decaf Coffee

I like to drink coffee all day, and have long sought a good decaf to switch to after 2 p.m. Heist is making a chemical-free decaf using water to strip away caffeine. (Water-processing has been around for a while, but because the method is slow, and thus more expensive, it’s infrequently used.) I like that Heist focuses entirely on great-tasting decaf coffee. It’s not a product offering. It’s their entire product. I have some at home and am enjoying it very much.

Going Analog

coldbrew lemonade

Half cold brew - half lemonade. I go to the same shop in SA every Saturday and order this. It’s the nuttiness of the cold brew and the acid of the lemonade that works so well together. Don’t knock it until you try it 🍋

Kettl | Kin Houjicha

hojicha is my go-to late afternoon/evening brew. this one is really good - earthy and vegetal in an almost savory way

Unified Ferments Kettl Hojicha Sparkling Tea

same dear friend that recommended the antelope also recommended this! again, aspirational na list for fun. looking forward to trying this tea ferment, and curious about any opinions in general

Grady's Cold Brew Packets @ home

You can make the fantastic Grady's Cold Brew at HOME (or anywhere) I have been on this train for a decade. I travel with them ALL over the world. Life is better and I dread the day I don't have them. Go go go.

Space Camp

Flowerhead Tea

For the mom who loves tea. The gift that keeps on giving. She'll think of you every night when she's filling her cup. Sweet.

Koala Tea Organics No Worries Tea

I bought this because I thought the artwork was cute and silly australiana but it's actually also really delish!

Harney & Sons Hot Cinnamon Sunset Tea

Fiery and soothing; can be drunk plain or amended with a dollop of honey.

Traci Fleming

Aurore (Substance)

I’m in Mexico City right now (a Wonderlyst guide is coming soon) and last night I had a glass of this exceptional sparking tea I had to share. Made in Provence by Myrko Tépus and Nicolas de Groot, it features Sencha High Grade green tea, pomelo with rose and hibiscus flowers. Delicious, bright and playful!

overnight cold brewed tea

my summer repeat: a handful of light low-oxidation oolong tea (i measure it based on vibes but the rec is 8g tea to 750ml water) leaves in a pitcher of filtered room temp water, fridge overnight (the tea leaves will expand) and drink all day long. i usually top it off a couple times throughout the day too and the flavor holds i also enjoy a verdant sencha or genmaicha

Bellocq The Chai Collection

I have the Canyon chai (very turmeric-forward) from Bellocq at the studio; insanely delicious with steamed milk! Nice hit of cardamom too. Curious about their Afghan chai, which seems richer and spicier. But I love and trust anything Bellocq makes to always be delicious.

Non 7 Stewed Cherry & Coffee

sour cherries, cold brew arabica coffee, garam masala, all spice, nutmeg, salt, pink peppercorn. my fave!!

Natasha Feldman

Mariage Freres Marco Polo

The perfect black tea for honey and milk.

Stumptown Half-Caff

Look closely: **Half-Caff** Irrationally and practically very happy about this advancement in technology that created a ‘half-caff’ bag of coffee beans.

April

Hibiscus Iced Tea

Hibiscus tea but specifically recommending the iced tea version as a refreshing summer bev. I love adding mint and lemon as well.

Analisa Burns

Oi Ocha Shohei Ohtani green tea

he is the global ambassador

Lily

Bellocq Teas

Bellocq teas. Hands-down my favorite caffeine-free tea is Bellocq’s beautiful CORAZON DE CIEN FUEGOS: organic hibiscus, organic lemongrass, organic lavender, rose petals, organic cinnamon. We go through it so fast at the studio I finally ponied up for the big jar, but the “travel caddies” make the most exquisite gifts.

High Desert Sage Tea by Teaography

I buy this in bulk from Taos, NM. Tastes so refreshing but also cozy? It's good hot and iced. The cinnamon is a nice touch.

MARIAGE FRERES MILKY BLUE

My friend Carol & Sister introduced me to Milky Oolong tea, this is Mariage Frères version of it, I got some in Paris this Fall. So delicious, naturally sweet & so so creamy without any dairy in it.

Sarah Cooney

Barry's Tea

I've been drinking Barry's tea since I was 19 and it is my favorite blend ever. I order direct from Ireland to make sure I get the very best. This is my fall brew!

Lily

Pu-erh tea from Yunnan

Got hip to earthy fermented pu-erh tea in Hong Kong, loved for its aid in digestion as an after-meal cup.

1/2 Coffee, 1/2 Hot Choc. in the Keystone Lodge - Dillon

I’m a Loveland girl at heart, but when I’m at Keystone, I’m sippin’ on one of these puppies. Warm, delicious, and probably the best thing about Keystone. Plus, cutest cups ever??
