After a long and busy weekend, I’ve been focusing on staying grounded and caring for my health as the winter season begins to unfold. Last night, that meant making myself a warm, comforting hojicha latte — Grade A2 cow’s milk and a spoonful of Flowering Waters light-roast hojicha powder. Simple, nourishing, and deeply soothing.

Hojicha has always been one of my go-to teas for moments like these.
Its low caffeine content, earthy aroma, and soft roastiness make it the perfect companion when I need to slow down and find a bit of stillness.

As we enter the season of giving, I’m reminded that the ability to gift good health — whether to yourself or someone special — is one of the most meaningful expressions of gratitude. If you’re looking for wholesome, thoughtful holiday ideas, the full Flowering Waters tea collection is available at www.floweringwaters.com.

Wishing you peace, happiness, and wellbeing during this beautiful time of year.

And if you're in Seattle — I’ll be at Reclaim Clay Collective tonight from 5 PM–9 PM for Goodnight Market. I would love to see you there.
