When you wake up\u2014groggy, still stuffed\u2014on Friday morning, you have officially entered the full force of the holiday zone. Black Friday greets your morning, and the next day we revel in Small Business Saturday. The following four weeks represent the sales spine of the entire year for most retailers, including us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shop local!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/AdobeStock_1707754497-1024x559.jpeg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nOf course we sell tea year-round, and work hard to educate potential customers about the many splendors of tea. Without our daily toil across all seasons, we wouldn\u2019t own tea shops today. That said, the holidays stand apart for their importance. Think of them as a desperately needed boost during the last two miles of a marathon. Minus the holiday support, many retailers would never cross the finish line. In fact, many businesses do call it quits when January arrives and the holidays have passed. If they don\u2019t make enough during December, they just give up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So let\u2019s all support as many small businesses as we can this season! For our many loyal Colorado customers, we\u2019re here for you in brick-and-mortar as well as online. For our customers in Seattle and New York, in Dallas, Milwaukee and Montreal, we may not be local, but we sure are small! Ku Cha has stood as a family-owned business since it got started, more than 20 years ago. We aim to still be here in another 20 years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s to the holidays\u2014speaking of which, Happy Holidays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Wonderful Christmas Chai: Black tea, yerba mate and rooibos loaded with a parade of holiday spices, cacao and coconut.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nKeen to magnify the spirit of the holidays? We\u2019ve got just the ticket\u2014our A Wonderful Christmas Chai. This fabulous blend packs a TON of seasonal flavor into every sip. Black tea, yerba mate and rooibos provide the scaffolding. To that structure we add (deep breath): cinnamon, ginger, rosemary, cardamom, peppercorn, orange peel, clove, cumin, red chile flakes, bay leaf, cayenne, cacao, chocolate and coconut. That\u2019s about as holiday-focused as you can get! You\u2019ll brew a pot of this. People will polish it off in minutes. Time for another round. It won\u2019t last long. This parade of tea-brewing will persist across the holidays. Everybody will clamor for A Wonderful Christmas Chai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christmas Cookie Blend: Rooibos with almond, walnut, cinnamon and anise, topped with sugar stars for a liquid cookie.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nThey\u2019ve arrived\u2014the weeks leading up to the end of December, when people across the country stock up on flour, butter and sugar, and commence turning that base into a wilderness of cookie variations. Some lean into peppermint and chocolate. Others go all-in for jam\u2014thumbprints, anyone? The diversity of styles staggers, which is one of the things we adore about the Christmas cookie flood. Never dull! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This season add our Christmas Cookie Blend to the holiday festivities. This beaut of a tea contains rooibos, almond, pineapple, rosemary, apple, rose hip, walnuts, anise, cinnamon, pink pepper, dragon fruit, beetroot and gold stars crafted from sugar. What a treat! Thinking about lacing it with cream and honey? That\u2019s a fine idea, friend. Chances are you\u2019ve never tasted a liquid cookie before\u2014now\u2019s your chance! And you get to control just how sweet you\u2019d like it. It\u2019s exceptional, too, without sweetener of any stripe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
