A stress-free holiday is all I want for Christmas 2019 and so far it has been so good! I spent this past weekend spreading cheer, seeing folks and staying far away from the malls. I am done shopping and now it is is time to unwind and cruise into the new year. But first, I had one more party to host just for the ladies: a Holiday Tea and Ugly Christmas Sweater Party!
It was easy to create and send the following facebook invite:
Hey LADIES!
Join me for HOLIDAY TEA at my home
* 3pm-5pm *Enjoy Hot Tea + Small Bites + Cheer
in a casual, comfortable setting!🎁 Please bring a gift wrapped MUG for a fun exchange 🎁
But first some selfies/usies :
Party set up was simple. In addition to the wrapped gift/mug exchange, I had a Mimosa Bar,
….a buffet style spread of Sweet & Savory Bites,
..we played a fun “Sips Tea” game, (similar to the Have You Ever drinking game and if your answer is yes then you would sip tea!)
… and there also was an Ugly Christmas Sweater contest!
👀Watch the participants model their sweaters below⤵️
Thanks to all who participated and Congratulations to Rada @simplysoutherngirlcharm for winning the contest! She received a book from award-winning blogger of The Cup of Life, Lu Ann Pannunzio, titled TEA-SPIRATION Inspirational Words for Tea Lovers courtesy of Mango Publishing and was also gifted some Wissotzky Tea‘s Simply Nana Mint Teas, which was the featured tea of the party!
I was excited to introduce my guests to Wissotzky Tea’s Simply Nana Mint Teas, an exotic mint variety that is an all-natural, delicious tea with Mediteranean origins. Nana is unlike any other variety of mint because it unleashes a subtle layer of earthiness and invigorating minty flavor in every tantalizing cup. Nana Tea is sure to awaken the spirit whether served hot or icy cold!
Here are some recipes to try with Simply Nana Mint!
Nana Mint Iced Green Tea & Honeydew
Green tea pairs perfectly with Honeydew Melon and the refreshing & invigorating finish of exotic Nana Mint and just a little touch of honey makes this an iced adventure you won’t want to miss.
How to make:
Brew two Nana Mint Green tea bags per 16oz of water
Let steep for 3-5 minutes
Remove tea bags and let chill in the refrigerator for 3 hours

Top with ice and chilled tea and enjoy!
