I had no idea Starbucks bought Teavana in 2012 (Press Release). Yesterday, after being inspired by a co-worker who bragged about his loose tea, being able to use the same leaves for multiple refills a day and the fact that you can’t “see” what’s in a typical lipton tea bag), I went to Teavana to make my first purchase! I have to say the experience was amazing – smells included! And le m just say, the rock sugar is amazing!!!!

Here’s what I bought (in addition to a clear tumblr – couldn’t find that one online to show you). You can also check out their blog here.
