Here, one writer shares her journey through the tea culture of New York City.
I’ve been drinking tea in New York since I was a little girl. When my grandparents first immigrated to New York City in the late ’80s from Kyiv, Ukraine, they brought all of their tea sets with them. Dozens of tiny cups with accompanying pots and sugar holders, all living within a glass vitrine alongside family portraits in their Brooklyn apartment.
Later, my relationship with tea would deepen. First, when I undertook a doctorate program in naturopathic medicine, where I focused on herbal medicine and began using that very same teaware to brew things like pine needles, whole roses, and licorice root. Then, a few years ago, I started a New York-based tea company,, with the intention of sourcing organically grown teas.
