It’s vacation time, Jolly tea drinkers! Having tea with you can enhance your vacation experience. My dream scenario is lounging in a comfy chair overlooking the ocean, while sipping on some delicious cold brewed tea! Whether you are casually strolling through beautiful cities or taking a walk on a gorgeous walking trail, you need tea as your companion on the journey! Here are some suggestions for your summer tea travel!
Pack Your Essentials
It may sound silly, but I like to pack my tea, like I pack my clothing. I simply plan out what I want to drink each day, and bring it with me! Usually there is a flavor that I imagine would add to my location, experience and mood, so I pack a variety of teas!
These are some recommended tea things to take with you on vacation!

Tea Bags or Sachets
These are easy to pack and they don’t add much weight to your luggage! If you have loose leaf tea, try placing it into individual paper filters. Scoop the specific amount for your cup into separate paper filters, so that you can easily use each filter for your daily tea. These are the paper filters that I use most often.
Portable Travel Kettle
Staying in a place without a kettle or microwave? This is a good way to boil water for your tea at any time. Just imagine bringing your portable tea maker with you on your adventures! Try packing something like this handy Travel Electric Tea Kettle, along with your toiletry travel bottles.
Insulated Water Bottle or Collapsible Travel Mug
Having a good insulated tumbler is a must for tea on the go! It helps to keep your hot tea hot or your cold tea cold for longer. Lately, I’ve been using this cold insulated bottle by Ello. It has a soft, silicone straw spout, a leak-proof locking lid and a carry handle! A collapsible mug is a great space saver, if you don’t want to carry a large insulated bottle.
Embrace the Environment
Take time to just sit peacefully and enjoy your environment, while you drink your tea. When relaxing by the waves of the ocean, try a fruity and floral tea. When enjoying a morning hike by majestic mountain scenery, perhaps try a strong black or chai tea. Hitting the pavement in a busy city? Try a revitalizing green tea! Or perhaps have a nice, easygoing herbal tea, while you take a stroll through a picturesque park. There’s nothing like beginning and ending your vacation day peacefully, drinking a cup of tea, while reflecting on your adventures.
Share the Experience!
Vacation is a great opportunity to bond with your travel companions over a cup of tea! Or better yet, maybe make a new friend!
Go Forth And Sip, Jolly Tea Drinkers!
A good cup of tea should be a part of every vacation! The beautiful locations you will visit can only be enhanced by the feeling produced from a satisfyingly good cup of tea! This summer, take your vacations to a whole new level by bringing your favorite cold brew tea with you!
