Tea Tuesday: Summer Transition Tea Blend 🌿🫖

Good morning, tea friends.

Today’s Tea Tuesday blend is all about gently moving from spring into summer.

Not rushing. Not forcing a brand-new routine. Not pretending we suddenly have to have our whole summer figured out.

Just easing into the next season with a little more intention, refreshment, and support.

This week’s blend is:

𝑺𝒖𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒓 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑻𝒆𝒂 𝑩𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒅 A bright, cooling herbal tea for seasonal reset, gentle energy, and summer rhythms.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲𝘀

𝑯𝒊𝒃𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒖𝒔— bright, tart, cooling, and traditionally used to support the body during warm weather

𝑳𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝒃𝒂𝒍𝒎 — calming, uplifting, and traditionally used to support the nervous system and emotional balance

𝑷𝒆𝒑𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒕 — refreshing, cooling, and traditionally used to support digestion and mental clarity

𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒆𝒉𝒊𝒑𝒔 — tangy, nourishing, and rich in natural plant compounds that support everyday wellness

𝑮𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓 — warming, comforting, and traditionally used to support digestion and circulation

I love this blend because it has a beautiful balance.

The hibiscus and peppermint bring that cool, refreshing summer feeling. The lemon balm adds calm and softness. The rosehips bring brightness and nourishment. And the ginger adds just a little warmth so the blend does not feel too cold or flat.

It is lovely warm, but honestly, this one is made for iced tea season.

Simple blend idea

1 part hibiscus
1 part lemon balm
½ part peppermint
½ part rosehips
¼ part ginger

How to make it

Add 1–2 teaspoons of the blend to a cup. Pour hot water over the herbs. Cover and steep for 8–10 minutes. Strain and enjoy warm, or let it cool and pour over ice.

For iced tea, you can also make a larger batch and keep it in the fridge.

𝗧𝗲𝗮 𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Before you sip, ask yourself

𝒲𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒶𝓂 ℐ 𝓇ℯ𝒶𝒹𝓎 𝓉ℴ 𝓇ℯ𝒻𝓇ℯ𝓈𝒽 𝒶𝓈 ℐ 𝓂ℴ𝓋ℯ 𝒾𝓃𝓉ℴ 𝓈𝓊𝓂𝓂ℯ𝓇?

Maybe it’s your morning rhythm. Maybe it’s your self-care. Maybe it’s your meals. Maybe it’s your mindset. Maybe it’s simply giving yourself permission to slow down and enjoy the season.

This week, we’re focusing on celebration and transition — honoring what we’ve made it through and gently preparing for what’s next.

𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲: This is for educational purposes only. Herbs can be supportive, but they are not one-size-fits-all. Please check with a qualified healthcare professional if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, managing a medical condition, or unsure whether an herb is right for you. Hibiscus may affect blood pressure and may not be appropriate for everyone. Ginger and peppermint may also need caution for some people, especially with reflux, blood thinning medications, blood sugar concerns, or certain medical conditions.

Your turn: Would you drink this warm or iced?

Small steps lead to big transformations.

Stay positive and kind.
