Tea for Kids

Tea for KidsThe newest craze is tea for kids! Whether or not, you have kids that just absolutely love tea (how cute are children’s tea parties with matching tea sets and the over-the-top costumes!), or you just want your kids to sip on a beverage that gives them more nutrients than soda pop or sugary juices, tea is a great choice for children.

When it comes to tea for kids, experts recommend teas that do not contain caffeine. Also, children tend to prefer flavored teas, so herbal teas with flavorful infusions are a great choice because your kids will get all the flavor without getting the caffeine jitters or getting hyped up. Also, children tend to prefer tea made at a cooler temperature. Iced tea is a great way to go. However, if you do want to serve your children hot tea (maybe with breakfast early in the morning in the wintertime, when you cannot even reason serving anything cold) let the tea cool to a lukewarm temperature before serving it.
