Russian Caravan Tea: The Perfect Brew for Cosy Winter Nights
Russian Caravan tea is a highly sought-after black tea, renowned for its unique smoky flavour. This popular tea has a rich history that dates back to the 1600s, when it was first discovered along the Sino-Russian trade route. Russian Caravan tea is a blend of black tea leaves that have been infused with smoke, resulting in a dark and malty tea with notes of tobacco, chocolate, firewood, charcoal, and smoke.
The story of Russian Caravan tea began when goods were carted from China to Russia via the Sino-Russian trade route. The tea was transported on mile-long camel caravans, and due to the long, cold, and snow-covered roads, the camels would often stop and rest near campfires. During these rests, the tea leaves absorbed the smoky flavour, and when the tea arrived in Russia, tea drinkers took notice of its new smoky character and really enjoyed it. This resulted in the official creation and demand for Russian Caravan tea.
Interestingly, around the same time Russian Caravan tea was discovered in Russia, a similar smoky black tea called Lapsang Souchong was discovered in China. Lapsang Souchong is made from leaves from the Wuyi Mountains, the birthplace of black tea, and is traditionally smoked over pinewood fires. This process gives Lapsang Souchong a unique smoky flavour that sets it apart from other teas, including Russian Caravan tea. Both Russian Caravan tea and Lapsang Souchong tea have gained worldwide popularity and are still enjoyed by tea enthusiasts today due to their bold and distinctive flavour profiles.
Russian Caravan tea is one of Tea Lovers' best-selling classic black teas. The company offers a range of classic black teas, including English Breakfast Superior, French Earl Grey, Earl Grey Supreme, Irish Breakfast Superior, Madam Grey and Prince of Wales. In addition, Tea Lovers also offers its own Australian version of Russian Caravan tea called ‘Australian Bushfire Caravan.’ This tea is a blend of Australian-grown Daintree black tea and China black tea, resulting in a mild smoky tea that is reminiscent of billy tea enjoyed over a campfire.
Russian Caravan tea is best enjoyed as a warm and comforting beverage. To experience the full range of flavours and aromas, it is recommended to steep the tea leaves for 3-5 minutes in boiling water. Adding a little bit of honey, sugar, or lemon can enhance the natural sweetness and further bring out the smoky notes.
Tea lovers can find the largest range of classic black teas, Australian black teas, gourmet flavoured teas, and herbal wellness teas at TeaLovers.com.au. Whether you're a seasoned tea drinker or just starting out, Russian Caravan tea is a must-try for anyone who loves a unique and comforting tea experience. So why not add a little bit of history to your next cup of tea and try Russian Caravan tea today?

herbal teas guide —
🌿🍃 having conversations with my mutuals all over the world, i was stunned to find out that not every country/culture practices drinking herbal teas for health issues. as a slavic person i decided to create this little guide because – and i'm saying this as a skeptical person who hates superstitions – they really work. 🌿🍃
mint tea (mentha piperita) is for digestion and relaxation chamomile tea (matricaria chamomilla) is for digestive system horsetail tea (equisetum arvense) is for skin, hair, nails condition, remineralization and circulatory system linden tea (tilia cordata) is for a cold lemon balm tea (melissa officinalis) is for relaxation and sleep nettle tea (uritca dioica) is for urinary tract sage tea (salvia officinalis) is for when your throat or teeth hurt fennel tea (funiculum vulgare) is for digestive system white mulberry tea (morus alba) is for carbohydrate metabolism pansy tea (viola tricolor) is for clean skin and body detox purge tea (cistus incanus) is for immunity hawthorn tea (crataegus monogyna) is for heart and circulatory system damian leaves tea (turnera diffusa) is for anxiety and libido dandelion tea (taraxacum officinale) is for liver, stomach and digestion st john's wort tea (hypericum perforatum) is for emotional balance, good mood, digestive system and kidney function
🌿🍃 to create this guide i was using a booklet from my pharmacy store. if you google them, you will find out that each of these have even more usage methods than the ones listed. 🍃🌿
🌿🍃 if you're from a different country/culture and you know more herbal teas like these, feel free to add them. 🍃🌿

Odysseus:
Here's my daily routine as one of the Achaean generals:
I wake up, I ignore Agamemnon.
I join the battlefield for 5 hours. I ignore Agamemnon.
I train with my soldiers, using the training as an excuse to ignore Agamemnon.
I finish training and eat dinner/breakfast, while continuing to ignore Agamemnon.
When the stars align and I do decide to talk to the people that dragged me here, the conversation tends to go something like:
- Hey, we need a new plan to defeat the Trojans. Let's come up with an idea to infiltrate their city!
- k

Does the flag REALLY means death once again? Can’t it mean something else for just once? Why is the flag denied a fairytale ending even this time?

A flashback to the summer and the luscious red raspberries in the garden. Raspberries (Rubus idaeus) are a universally popular fruit and flavour for desserts and candies, but did you know that the leaves may have medicinal value in women’s health? Fresh or dried raspberry leaves can be steeped in boiling water to make a tangy, refreshing grassy-flavoured tea. The tea prepared from the leaves contain high concentrations of vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium, zinc, antioxidant flavonoids, and ellagic acid (thought to help prevent cancer).
There’s a medical hypothesis that potassium and magnesium deficiency is one of the main underlying factors of PMS, and that’s where raspberry leaf tea can help. People who experience painful menstrual cramps may find drinking raspberry leaf tea during the first days of their period beneficial. The leaves are rich in bioavailable (easily absorbed by the human body) magnesium. Magnesium soothes muscle cramps by relaxing the smooth muscles, which are the type found in the uterus. Raspberry leaves are also high in potassium, and medical studies indicate eating potassium rich foods during your period can help with pain and bloating. Raspberry leaves also contain an alkaloid called fragrine, which may act to relax the smooth muscles of the uterus.
Raspberry leaf tea also has many traditional uses in pregnancy and labor, and there is medical evidence to support that drinking the tea during pregnancy can lower the risk of complications during birth. The medical consensus is that raspberry leaf tea is generally safe, but if you are interested in drinking it during pregnancy please talk to your doctor first.
If you find the plain raspberry leaf tea insipid, try combing it with with green tea, lemon balm, and spearmint for a refreshing drink that’s suitable for all phases of your monthly cycle.

so i slept early today and i shouldnt do that because i woke up with huge sadness and now i cant sleep. my sister was gloomy at dinner and i still feel the tiniest bit of sorrow from my sister as if it were a wound in my heart. and it’s tiring when you have your own sadness. no matter how hard i try to change, I feel like my heart is programmed to feel other people's heartache, especially those of my loved ones. i guess the only thing i can do is feel this emotions. the only way out is through
