No, you don’t have to be a proper Brit to enjoy a nice cup of tea every day. As a tea lover myself, I down close to six cups of it a day, whether it be my morning dandelion tea, midmorning Irish breakfast tea, spearmint tea with lunch or sleep-inducing tea before bed. I simply cannot get enough of it.

The beauty of tea is that there are so many flavors and combinations, making the gifting option for tea lovers truly endless. Below, we’ve rounded up the best options to bring some extra warmth to the tea lover in your life — plus, some editor-recommended picks that we love to sip on.

"Whenever I was restless before bed or was filling unwell as a kid, my grandma would always make me a fresh cup of Chamomile tea," says editorial assistant Madison San Miguel. "So now whenever I drink it, I think of her! I'd love to give back by gifting her her own set to enjoy, which this one contains to big tins full of the tea."

The boba tea craze has blown up in the past few years, so gift your closest bubble tea fanatic this at-home kit to make their own. This DIY set includes two different teas — classic black and rooibos chai — tapioca pearls and two reusable stainless straws so users can enjoy bubble tea in the comfort of their own home.

"My mom has only stuck to two herbs when it comes to tea — green and chamomile — but hasn't explored outside of that," says San Miguel.

On the train, on the plane, in the car or while commuting to work, gift them with this Corkcicle travel mug so they can take their tea to-go. Available in six colors, the brand says this mug keeps liquids hot for up to three hours, meaning they can sip their morning tea well into the work day.

I don’t know about you, but my multiple boxes and sachets of tea are currently shoved into a kitchen cabinet and aren’t particularly pleasant to look at. If anyone would like to gift me this lovely bamboo tea storage box to keep things a bit more organized, I would be eternally grateful (as would any tea lover!).

For the true tea enthusiast, this book will be the perfect addition to their coffee table.

For the busy tea lover on-the-go, this cute little travel tea set is a super-smart solution. Just fill the top half with hot water and your favorite loose-leaf tea, let it steep, then press the little button to release the water, where it will strain the tea through a super-fine mesh strainer and release into the removable tea cup on the bottom half.

"It keeps my coffee and tea hot and my various cold drinks cold for hours."

There’s nothing more frustrating than pouring a cup of tea, letting the tea bag steep and then realizing too late that your cup is now cold. This won’t be the case with the Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 — this incredibly sleek-looking mug can keep your desired drinking temperature up to 1.5 hours, or set it on the charger for all-day tea-heating.

"My mom redesigned her kitchen a couple of years ago and wanted a few fresh accessories, so my brother and I gifted her this kettle," says partnerships editorial assistant Erica Marrison. "She loves that it looks chic on the countertop, but also that it heats up fast and you can control the temperature of the water. Plus, the slow pour encourages you to really stop and savor your favorite hot drink."

This China tea set is inspired by "the late Italian designer Renzo Mongiardino’s hand-painted wallpaper" that currently, and continues to be, decorated across the walls of The Carlyle hotel in New York City.
