As you start a new year with new goals & new plans, remember: growth is an organic thing made of twists, knots, scabs & die-off. You can't grow a healthy plant without some funny-lookin leaves!⁠ ⁠ Tbh, my fave plants at the tea house are the ones with the odd growth patterns.

thank goodness for @fridaytea.com

Where do you belong? Which tea speaks to you? #greekmyth #synesthesiaart #mythology

This was a super satisfying round! I was SO CLOSE. Right cultivar, wrong terroir. This is how sommeliers stay sharp! 🍵😘 #seattle #teahouse #teasommelier

I received my @fridaytea.com order right on time for my literal Friday afternoon of unhinged post-holiday work calls. 🤣✌️ Thank you so much!!!

A good a time as any to remind y’all that there is a Sword & Tea blend! It’s literally the best tea you’ll ever drink! *this message is biased and totally hyperbolic* but what if it actually is the best tea you’ve ever had? Get some and find out! www.fridaytea.com/products/swo...

I haven't opened the box with my last order in it and I'm sitting here pondering another order...

Hey if you were thinking my custom tea looked delicious when I posted it 2 weeks ago, I'm just saying today is a good day to try it yourself if you want to sneak into the Secret Menu portion of Friday's site 👀 www.fridaytea.com/products/sto...

New year = new month = new staff picks! www.fridaytea.com/collections/...

My Burke Museum peeps might want to nip down to Fremont and peruse the selection at @fridaytea.com...!

Dinolicious brews are back! These fossil-fabulous friends resurrect every winter for your paleo pleasure. My personal fave? CHAI-eratops! 🍵🦕⁠ ⁠ Which dinosaur do you most relate to?

They want to wipe out almost a third of the country. It’s got nothing to do with illegal immigration. It’s white nationalism pure and simple. They’re fascists, and there’s no reason to doubt it.

Cheers to new friends, small joys and big flavor! Cheers keeping your love local and investing in your community! Cheers to you and all the wonderful opportunities for connection you'll find in 2026! Pictured: neighbor & collaborator Carson the Red Panda at @woodlandparkzoo.bsky.social

In my cup tonight. Fragrant and relaxing, tastes like dreaming. 10/10 will always recommend. How about you? Whatcha drinking? www.fridaytea.com/products/fri...

One of the greatest joys of tea: making a mess. Tea is a deeply physical art. Tangible beauty in leaf and water and clay and human touch. What luck, to exist in a world full of tea.

Honest to god I love how careful and caring this tea shop really is! Making a gluten free tea is next level love and understanding that others should consider 🙂‍↕️❤️ Always worth buying from Friday Afternoon Tea, one of the best tea shops out there, trust! 🥰👍🏾

Find yourself a tea shop that considers the needs of its customers like this and you’ll find that the tea tastes just a little bit more delicious.

Great news, #ThirstyNerds! Our bestselling Second Breakfast now comes in a celiac-friendly* version made with buckwheat in place of the usual barley. Now more of our Hobbit friends can join in the joy and pull up to the picnic! 🧺☕️

My @fridaytea.com order arrived! I’m so excited. I think I’ll have the punkin pie rooibos this evening, but I can’t wait to have a cup of my beloved The Modern ProTEAtheus tomorrow.

Truly the most delicious tea I’ve ever had. I plan on preordering some and you should too. ☺️🫖

Did you hear about our newest winter fave? Sticky Rice Shou Puer is here, fresh from the farm! This baby vintage was harvested in 2024, but don't let its young age fool you; the rich depth and remarkable smoothness is unparalleled in this gem of a leaf!⁠

God finally someone has something nice to say about Capricorns 🤣 My poor Cap gf.

The capricorn blend is one of my favorite teas. It tastes like a mouthful of the forest floor in all of the best ways. Memories of green life even in the coldest winter

Got some of my friends @fridaytea.com tea for christmas! They've all gotten to try & they all really loved it. Taurus for a friend who likes genmaicha, sweet vengeance for a friend who likes smokey tea, and tree hurter for a friend who "wants to drink the forest floor". Happy they all loved it!

Wishing you a glowy weekend of love and comfort, teaheart. Any particular self-care plans?⁠ ⁠
