Beautiful Iced Tea Glasses: Time to Get Ready for Warm Weather!

February 3, 2020 by Joi Leave a Comment

It’s been gorgeous here in Kentucky the past few days and, as I do every year around this time, my thoughts have turned entirely to flower beds, grilling out, homemade ice cream, and long walks. I’d say the thoughts have turned to iced tea but, let’s be honest here, my thoughts never leave iced tea.

As the weather heats up, however, I do drink even more of the magical elixir. A lot more. As in so many glasses a day I couldn’t even begin to count them all! Due to being a stereotypical clutz, I find that I need more iced tea glasses, ass most of ours have been broken. Have you ever noticed that you hardly ever (IF ever) drop a plastic cup? It’s always the glass ones that are the acrobats!

I’ve found some Libbey Gibraltar Iced Tea Glasses (Amazon link) I’m wild about. They come in a set of 12, which would see even me through an entire “iced tea season.”

The one pictured is the 22 oz glass, though 12 and 16 oz are available… for the amateur tea drinkers in our lives! Just leave the 22 oz glasses to us pros, am I right?

So long as I don’t break them all.

See Libbey Gibraltar Iced Tea Glasses (Amazon link) for more information. These are gorgeous!

Gorgeous Tea Glasses from Adagio Teas

October 10, 2018 by Joi

I often harp on this but the beauty of drinking tea involves more than just the delicious taste of the tea we’re drinking. It’s about the entire experience. The process.

The peaceful, beautiful, “transport me from where I am to where I want to be” experience. Everything about tea makes you slow down and enjoy life on a deeper level – from the preparation to the actual drinking.

I guess that’s why I spend so much time looking at and shopping for tea glasses, tea cups, kettles, and other tea accessories. I love to add to my tea world, because it’s such a beautiful, beautiful place to be.

The gorgeous tea glasses pictured here are a perfect example of making the tea experience even more special and even more beautiful. These beauties are from a name I KNOW you KNOW – Adagio Teas. They’ve long done their part to make the world of tea an even more beautiful place, so it’s no wonder their tea glasses are this gorgeous.

Christmas in July: Spode Christmas Tree Pitcher, Glasses, and Mugs (Yes to ALL!)

July 19, 2017 by Joi Leave a Comment

I’ll just go ahead and admit it – I’m one of “those” people. The ones who think about, talk about, and plan for Thanksgiving and Christmas all year. In fact, I plan to start testing out a few new dressing recipes this week.

I don’t think my husband will mind!

The gorgeous glasses, mugs, and pitcher pictured in this post have me ready to do some serious shopping for the Christmas season. These are just so beautiful I can’t stand it. The Spode Christmas designs are deliciously warm and wonderful throwbacks to good old-fashioned Christmases. Look at the ornaments on the tree on the pitcher & mug below – they’re just wonderfully vintage-looking.

The Spode Christmas Tree Glass Pitcher is the first thing I plan to order. This 96-ounce glass pitcher was introduced in 2006 and would make a gorgeous gift (for keeping or giving). It comes gift-boxed in Spode’s signature red packaging. In addition to being ridiculously beautiful, this pitcher is dishwasher safe – meaning I love it even more.

The Spode Christmas Tree Red Stem Glasses (above) were introduced in 2015. Each goblet has a 18 oz. capacity. They’re a little more exquisite, so they require hand-washing… they’re worth it though!

The Spode Christmas Tree Glasses (above) also come with a recommendation for “Hand Washing” and they, too, are very much worth it. These beauties are crafted of clear glass and have 22-karat gold trims. Gorgeous!

Last, but far from least, is the Spode Christmas Tree Mug (set of 4). I love these mugs – not only is the Christmas image on the front absolutely precious, there’s even a little extra loveliness inside the mug. This extra touch just sends it over the top for me. I love it. The high-quality porcelain earthenware is dishwasher and even microwave safe.

I’m picturing a lot of hot tea, cocoa, and coffee served in these gorgeous mugs.

Colorful Tea Glasses: Even More Beautiful in Person

March 14, 2017 by Joi Leave a Comment

I bought this beautiful 4-Piece Libbey Impressions Colors Cooler Glass Set for one of my three daughters last Christmas and, while I love her to the moon and back… I nearly kept them for myself! They are even more beautiful in person than in the picture.

In the end, maternal love trumped the love of pretty things, so she received these as one of her presents. She loved them as much as I did. They’re just very unique and very, very pretty.

The four 16.5 oz heavy sham double old fashioned glasses have dimpled sides, which are easier to appreciate in person than in pictures. The bottom of each glass is lime, magenta, turquoise or orange – each color is very vivid and beautiful.

Great wedding, housewarming, or host gift

See that “dishwasher safe” description – another one of my favorite things about these beauties, BUT if we’re being honest, I’m not entirely sure I’d trust my dishwasher with such pretty glasses.

See Libbey Impressions Colors Cooler Glass Set for more information. These are simply gorgeous and would make a great gift for anyone you know… as well as yourself!

I can’t begin to tell you how much I love this beautiful Perfectea Glass Tea Mug – well, I guess that’s a lie, I could begin to tell you… but I might not be able to stop telling you.

This beauty has the Teavana logo on one side and one of four quotes on the Teavana lifestyle on the other. It’d make a gorgeous gift idea for any tea lover in your life.

The mug fits perfectly under the Perfectea Makers.

I have to tell you, I’ve gone ahead and fallen head over heels in love with Turkish Tea Glasses. They’re almost too beautiful to even think of as glasses. They look like little artsy vases, but make such perfect vessels for iced tea that I’d never dream of putting anything BUT tea in them.

Mason Drinking Jars with Polka Dot Lids and Straws

I realize I JUST did a post for polka dot loving tea drinkers, but when I saw these Set of Four (4) 15-oz Colorful Polka Dots Mason Jar Beverage Cups ~ 4 Clear Glass Drink Cups with Metal Lid, Straw Included, I knew I’d be pulling a back-to-back.

So here we go…

This adorable set includes four glass Mason Jar Beverage Cups with colorful polka dots metal lids & straws. Naturally they’re perfect for lemonade, smoothies, protein drinks, iced water, and juice – but, you know me, all I can envision in them is iced tea. Lots and lots of iced tea.

While they’d make a great gift idea for just about anyone, I see no reason to not buy the first set for yourself.

Polka Dot Tumbler Set: Perfect for Iced Tea

August 5, 2014 by Joi Leave a Comment

The adorable 8pc Polka Dot ACRYLIC TUMBLER SET 24oz Capacity have A LOT going on for them. Obviously, they’re great looking – they’re colorful and fun, making any variety of iced tea a special treat.

I also love the fact that they’re acrylic. This means they LOOK like glass but won’t break like glass. You’d think it was the fact that I was a mother that made me partial to acrylic glasses, but I can’t blame that on my daughters. I’M the reason – all by myself.

Honestly, a clumsier person was never born.

Features:

suitable for indoor or outdoor use
dishwasher safe
made from acrylic
BPA free
glass-like clarity
durable
colorful!

Sigh. I absolutely love these.

As I’ve mentioned before on this very tea blog, I am nothing if not obsessed with beautiful dishes. Plates, bowls, saucers, mugs, glasses – the works. When I see beautiful glasses or other dishes, they just strike me as works of art.
