Tea has been woven into Marlene’s life since early childhood. At just three years old, she began ending her evenings with a small cup of tea with milk—a soothing ritual that helped her unwind before bed. That simple moment of comfort became the beginning of a lifelong love affair with teas and herbal tisanes.As she grew, so did her curiosity and creativity. Marlene began blending teas for every mood and moment—steaming hot cups for comfort, iced teas for refreshment, tea cocktails for celebration, tea‑infused ice creams for delight, and herbal blends to support her overall well‑being. What started as a childhood ritual evolved into a joyful exploration of global flavors, healing traditions, and sensory experiences.The art of tea blending for enjoyment, wellness and creativity is a wonderful way to learn about teas and to develop your own personalized tea/herbal tea blends that are specific to your taste buds and wellness needs. I hope that you will join my upcoming workshops where learning is integrated with a great deal of hands-on creativity and blending that you can take home and share with your family and friends.
