How to Create a Christmas Tea-Tasting Game

How to Create a Christmas Tea-Tasting Game

A tea-tasting game is a simple Christmas activity for adults who enjoy trying different flavours. Keep the game about taste and aroma rather than guessing what a tea is supposed to do for your health.

Prepare a small selection

Choose up to three teas. Tell everyone the ingredients before they decide whether to take part, even if you keep the order of the samples a surprise. Check dietary needs and follow each product’s instructions. Serve small samples at a comfortable drinking temperature.

Create a tasting card

  • Sample number.
  • Aroma: citrus, grassy, earthy or something else?
  • First impression of the flavour.
  • Favourite sample and why.

How to play

Give everyone the same samples in the same order. Allow a little quiet tasting time before people compare notes. Provide water between samples and keep sweeteners separate so guests can try the tea itself first.

Make it festive

A little ribbon around each tasting card or a small wrapped prize can make the activity feel special. There are no wrong answers when describing personal preference. Use K&M Herbs’ guide to introduce the family and Grenadian background afterwards, rather than turning the game into a test of herbal knowledge.
