August Vibes, and Sipsby Tea Review

August treated us well, other than the mid-90-degree weather, and school starting. I'd say I am still very thankful and feel fortunate to be able to take in each day and be with my family.

August consisted of school starting, new job searches for my husband, and new blog opportunities for me. I am forever thankful to all of you that continue to reach out, and those of you who come by, and read my content. This month my content was featured on Hometalk, and I have had a few other blog opportunities. - Thank you!

And for those of you who follow along, I'd love it if you checked out my other blog over at stephcreatesthingsdiyhomeandcrafts.blogspot.com I started this blog so that I can display more of my crafts. It is a space that will feature just my DIY crafts and other home projects.

This month I received my August tea box, and as always Sipsby left me impressed! If you haven't heard of Sipsby here's a little about who they are, and what they do.

Let's take a look inside my August tea box

Sugar Cookie Sweetheart- Sips by, Cookie Tea

Caffeine-free

Can we just say that this was my absolute favorite in my August box!

Every sip was like I was enjoying a sugar cookie, and it was so delicious.

This tea is a loose-leaf tea, and I thought it was so cute how there were little sugar hearts. Steep for 5 minutes, and enjoy!

Sunshower Spice-Sips by, Rainy Day Tea CO

Caffeine-free

This tea is perfect for Fall time. When I first opened the package, the aroma was everything! Flavors included cinnamon, apple bits, cardamom seeds, and sweet blackberry leaves. This tea steeps for 5-7 mins and is packed with delicious spices, and really puts you in the Autumn vibe.

Chocolate Mint Oolong tea- Sips by, Stash Tea

This was my evening tea. Perfect for sipping after a long day.

flavors included chocolate and mint. If you love those two flavors, you will love this tea!

Perfect for evening sips.

Mango Magic- Sips by, Ahmad tea

High caffeine

Hello, mango! If you are a mango fan, this tea is definitely for you. It is a black tea and is packed with mango goodness. This tea provided some great mango flavors and tastes wonderful with a little honey. Steep for 3-5 mins, and enjoy!
