Interstellar Franchise Teas

The Star Trek Earl Grey Tea Boasts Intergalactic Goodness

— April 17, 2014 — Lifestyle
Intergalactic battles can get pretty taxing -- every good captain needs some downtime, so why not indulge in a cup of your favourite Star Trek Earl Grey tea?

Just like Captain Jean-Luc Picard, you too can now sip on this rich blend of premium black tea with bergamot oil while ordering fellow Starship crew members around. Unfortunately, since you won't have a replicator handy, you may have to use traditional methods and scoop out the tea into your loose leaf brewer. As Picard would say, "make it so!" -- steep the Earl Grey tea in water just off the boil for two to three minutes, and voila: you have yourself a perfectly brewed cup fit for a captain.

For the times you need to make those tough universe-saving decisions, or simply calm your nerves, the flavors from this officially-licensed Star Trek tea is bound to take you out of this world.

So, go on: have that 'Tea, Earl Grey, Hot.'
