Our Story
When we discovered that tea drinkers had expanded beyond nibbling cucumber sandwiches and sipping on an oh-so-familiar Black tea, we tea lovers became curious. We familiarized ourselves with teas from around the globe, relished in new exotic flavors, and explored delectable, new food pairings. Yes, we tea fans had found ourselves in our element. Later, our passion for tea led us to holding tea tasting parties, traveling to conventions, attending seminars…and, soon after, we launched Element Tea.

At Element Tea we practice strict quality control and we follow strategic guidelines when purchasing our products. Those practices involve numerous samplings, improving formulations, buying tea from renowned tea estates and suppliers, and hand-selecting products with raw, natural ingredients. We also carry certified organic teas for every one of our categories.

Our goal is to introduce people to some of the world’s healthiest and most delicious teas, to expand tea palettes and tea knowledge, and to answer all tea-related questions. We want people to have fun exploring this popular beverage by learning about the origin of tea, the different flavor varieties, how tea is prepared, and understanding all the health benefits of this delicious drink. We also preach that tea is not in competition with coffee. In fact it is very much opposite to the ‘get up and go’ coffee buzz. Instead, the daily ritual of tea encourages people to take a break or steal a moment to themselves, or better still, to bond with close friends.

As part of our goal, we also believe it’s important to ensure that farm workers on tea estates are paid a fair, above-market price and that strict socioeconomic development criteria are being met in developing countries across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. That is why we have a Chari-TEA, a specific tea that, when purchased, will give a percentage of the profit to TransFair USA, a non-profit organization that issues Fair Trade Certifications.

Please enjoy your experience with us, share your thoughts with us, and, ultimately, be in your element.

A Journey to Serendipi-TEA!!

Tea Cocktail Recipes

By Marianne Mullis:

With a slightly more than discerning palate and a very discriminatory digestive system, it is often difficult for me to get excited about drinking anything. Alas, with the inevitable aging process and the chronic intestinal issues I’ve had since birth, things like taste and and satisfaction don’t seem nearly as important as maintaining the ability to stand up without doubling over for a whole day. I can’t have dairy. Coffee is a grotesque misadventure just waiting to happen so it’s always herbal or iced tea for me…I used to love wine, but then it got all particular on me. Beer, well, I love beer, but beer does not love me back. All these restrictions can make the weekend a little difficult for one who doesn’t mind the occasional adult beverage. Being the one to which I’m referring to, I have been forced to get creative. So came a signature cocktail, designed by and named after my self. As much as I feel I have combatted the singular problem of finding a drink that didn’t kick me back, there is one slight problem with the “Marianne”…it’s all I have…and maybe I get bored sometimes. HOWEVER, I was recently approached about some new kind of cocktails…some made with Element Tea. I instantly was intrigued…could it be? A serendipitous union, of mutually digestively-kind liquids, to tantalize my variety deprived taste buds and that won’t make me feel completely incapacitated the next day?! It could be and would be, Element Tea to my rescue apparently. We have included some of Element’s amazing tea-based cocktail recipes below:

Ele-MINT Mojito
Ingredients:
5 oz Mojito Rooibos
2 oz Club Soda
1 oz Rum
1/2 Squeezed Lime
1 tbsp sugar

Use 2 teaspoons of Mojito Rooibos Tea per 8 oz cocktail glass. Brew tea with boiling water for 5 minutes. Pour over ice to chill, add club soda, sugar, and rum, and top off with lime.

Slim Belt Whiskey:
Ingredients:
7 oz Deluxe Iced Tea
1 oz Whiskey
Use 2 teaspoons of Deluxe Iced Tea per 8 oz cocktail glass. Brew tea with boiling water for 4 minutes. Pour over ice to chill and add whiskey.

Strawberry-Kiwi Infusion Tea Cocktail
Ingredients:
5 oz Strawberry-Kiwi Tea
2 oz Sprite
1 oz Vodka
Halved strawberries and Kiwis (optional)

Use 2 teaspoons of Strawberry-Kiwi Tea per 8 oz cocktail glass. Brew tea with boiling water for 5-8 minutes. Pour over ice to chill, add Sprite and vodka, and top off with strawberries and kiwis.

These yummy concoctions will be served up here this Friday at our CRAVE Denver Event! Perfect for all you adult beverage lovers and/or connoisseurs of tea…we invite you to swing by and taste one of their delicious beverages and maybe try a round of Dance Dance Revolution!! Hope to see you there!
