"""Clever, colorful, and complete. This fun collection of recipes spans the world of tea from iced dirty chai to homemade boba with traditional recipes for yummy crumpets and shortbreads."" --Dan Bolton, editor of Tea Journey and host of the Tea Biz Podcast ""Nicole had me sold with the words 'homemade boba.' She's taken an enormously broad and diverse subject (often overly technical)--tea beverages--and transformed it into a playground that's refreshingly accessible and easy to play along with. All with hardly any extra equipment than what you would find in your own kitchen already. Even tackling making your own boba pearls and tea jellies is doable with Nicole's step-by-step guidance. Bravo!"" --Suzette Hammond (Sooz), founder of Being Tea, award-winning tea educator, industry speaker, and teacher-trainer ""Nicole's book offers a delightful array of recipes that will help anyone open their mind to the breadth of flavors that tea can bring as an ingredient."" --Tony Gebely, founder of Tea Epicure and author of Tea: A User's Guide ""This is a guidebook that can transform anyone who has dunked a tea bag in a mug into a confident tea hostess. Nicole infuses each recipe with tea information, cultural meaning, and detailed tips on serving tea to a crowd or just savoring a personal meditative moment."" --Babette Donaldson, author of The Everything Healthy Tea Book ""Whether you want to keep it simple or fancy up your tea tray, there is a tea recipe for everyone here. After her concise intro to tea and its prep, Nicole offers some flavorful sips and tips for classics with a twist. If you are enchanted with new and inventive ways to savor your tea, this is a book with the spirit to inspire you!"" --Linda Gaylard, tea sommelier and award-winning author"
