La boîte à thé

1) Practical Antioxidants

A cup of tea contains ten times more antioxidants than a portion of fruit! Antioxidants help your body regenerate its cells and keep a youthful looking body - with the enhanced health that goes with it!

2) Farewell to fatigue and dark circles!

To improve your productivity and combat your symptoms of chronic fatigue, tea is a great ally! Studies show its effectiveness in keeping you awake and alert, especially when you do not add sugar or milk to your beverage. It has a lot to do with vitamin C, theine and the low dose of caffeine, no doubt!

Moreover, you can reuse your used tea bags by cooling them, still wet, after use. Put them on your closed eyes like slices of cucumbers to relieve your dark circles!

3) A much healthier stimulus than caffeine

But when you have to study or be creative at the office, tea is a healthier way to stay awake than a cup of coffee! The amounts of caffeine are 3 or 4 times less and theine, in higher doses, has this virtue: it stimulates your brain and keeps you alert, without annoying your system and your body.

4) Slimming Drink for a Thin Waist

Tea, with its 0 calories, is a great substitute for juices and soft drinks that are much too sweet. However, that's not all: tea also helps speed up your metabolism and, as a result, allows you to burn calories faster. That will make your diet easier!

5) No more snacking!

The attributes of tea make it a regular drink to help regulate your glycemic index. In itself, it's a great thing for diabetics - and it's great for the rest of the population, too, as it helps prevent sugar cravings and impulsive nibbling.

Préparer une bonne tasse de thé est tout un art! Du moins, c’est ce que vous direz les Anglais – ou les Japonais intéressés par la cérémonie du thé. Si les sortes de thé préférés et les rituels varient d’un pays à un autre, il reste une foule de détails qui sont vrais partout à travers le monde. Certains sont des recommandations (utiliser de l’eau de source ou de l’eau filtrée plutôt que de l’eau du robinet; faire chauffer dans une bouilloire plutôt qu’une casserole pour ne pas « corrompre » le goût). D’autres sont des règles à suivre – quantité, méthodes, temps. Voyons-y de plus près.

Que ça chauffe! (Mais pas trop)

Existe-t-il une règle d’or décidant de la température idéale de l’eau? Pas exactement – ou plutôt, cela dépend du thé en question! Pour le thé vert, on voudra une température de 70 degrés; pour les thés noirs, cela peut aller jusqu’à 20 degrés plus haut. Or, et cela vous surprendra peut-être, l’important est de ne pas utiliser d’eau bouillante. Si votre eau commence à frémir, elle est bien assez chaude!

Infuser à la perfection (dosage et temps)

Il faut ensuite décider de la quantité de thé à infuser dans votre eau chaude. Vous vous direz peut-être qu’il suffit de mesurer une cuiller à thé pour chaque tasse – après tout, on n’a pas donné ce nom à nos cuillers pour rien! Cela dit, une cuiller mesure le volume et, entre un thé vert tout en feuille et un thé noir plus dense et moulu, la quantité de thé contenue dans une cuiller est très différente! Alors, on calculera plutôt par le poids : 3 grammes de thé par tasse d’eau.

Le temps d’infusion dépendra aussi du thé. Noir, il sera infusé 2 ou 3 minutes, pour ne pas devenir amer. Oolong, il devra infuser au moins 5 minutes, pour qu’il ait le temps de développer ses arômes.

Munis de ces conseils, buvez votre thé avec plaisir!

A good relationship with your customers and employees is built on respect and mutual trust.

That said, it can sometimes be complicated to know exactly what to offer as a gift to your customers and your employees. Yes, when you meet them, you can offer them a dinner in a restaurant, a classic that allows for the exchange and deepening of bonds and trust. But when it comes to marking your appreciation in the form of thanks, without adding the meeting and the conversation, how to choose the perfect gift?

Because in our time, the subject is delicate! Sweets and chocolates are to be avoided for diets, diabetes and health problems. Local products must be careful not to trigger allergies ... or to go against ethical or religious values. Serrano ham is an excellent delicacy, but certainly not to the taste of your vegetarian customers or your Jewish or Muslim collaborators! And sending them an inexpensive item will often be seen as pure marketing ... What to do?

Our modest but clever proposal: offer a tea subscription as an appreciation. As long as you have some water to boil, tea is a perfect and all-round gift. No calories, a bunch of health benefits, easy to prepare and available in a vast sample of flavors, the tea manages to match most tastes without the inconvenience!

In addition, the advantage of a tea subscription is that it stretches over time. Thus, every month that your customer or collaborator receives an assortment of tea from you, he or she will inevitably think of you well. By remembering the positive memory of your company in their mind, you increase the chances of them coming back to make extra purchases in your company! This is called a gift that keeps giving!

The end-of-day sweetness you deserve

The suggestion seems straight out of an exotic spa. Chocolate massage, tea bath, pine sauna room ... Yes, without a doubt, we would not be surprised to see a green tea bath formula appear in the program of a day detox and well-being!

Besides, what would prevent us from letting one of these baths "good for the body and for the soul" sink at the end of a long day? A good bath has always been a privileged way to unwind and relax. Only, instead of putting foam on it, you'll put five or six bags of green tea this time! Fifteen to twenty minutes of waiting will be necessary.

In case you wonder why:

A cocktail of antioxidants and detox to tame, inside and out!

Green tea does not have a good taste and a good effect on your digestion and your cells: it also contains a ton of antioxidants helpful that help keep your body young and healthy. This goes for your skin too! Not only does its properties help fight wrinkles and the harmful effects of the sun: a green tea bath will also help you relax your sore muscles and accelerate the healing of certain sores and wounds, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.

In addition, the green tea bath will allow you to revitalize your skin! With the detoxifying effects we love so much, tea cleanses your skin deeply and restores radiance to your pores and elasticity to your skin. In addition, the vitamin B contained in the tea will soften your skin - and your worries! Because, little more sweetness, tea in general is known to lower the levels of cortisol - and therefore, by extension, stress. We open a bottle of red and relax!
