1 December 2025 Introduction: Why Winter Teas Matter
Winter is the season of slowing down, warming up, and finding comfort in small rituals—like wrapping your hands around a steaming cup of tea. Winter teas bring together everything people crave during the colder months: warmth, spice, sweetness, and nostalgia. At C Tea House, we take this season seriously, curating blends that transform cold days into calming, cozy moments. Whether you’re looking for a tea that warms your body, comforts your spirit, or creates the perfect atmosphere for a night in, our collection of winter teas can make even the chilliest days feel inviting.
Winter teas carry a unique kind of warmth—the kind that comes from rich spices, deep caramel notes, soothing herbs, and the kinds of flavors that feel like a home-cooked dessert in a cup. Here, we’ll introduce six of the best winter teas from C Tea House and explore what makes each blend perfect for this season.
Salted Caramel Chai: Dessert Warmth in a Cup
Salted Caramel Chai has a way of attracting people who love indulgence. It’s a blend that feels cozy, sweet, and balanced, offering the richness of caramel with the warmth of chai spices. Cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and cloves come together with smooth black tea, creating a cup that feels like a soft blanket around your senses.
What makes Salted Caramel Chai especially perfect for winter is its ability to taste like a dessert without the heaviness of one. The caramel adds comfort, the tea adds depth, and the hint of sea salt brings everything into harmony. This is the tea you drink when you want a quiet moment alone, a soothing break during a busy holiday week, or a sweet treat without leaving your house. Purchase Salted Caramel Chai Here

Spiced Apple Pie Red Tea: Caffeine-Free Winter Comfort
Winter evenings call for teas that feel like comfort but allow for restful nights. Spiced Apple Pie Red Tea checks both boxes beautifully.

This tea almost tastes like a memory: holiday baking, warm cinnamon, cozy kitchens, and family gatherings. It’s the tea you drink when snow is falling outside, candles are lit, and you want to settle into your evening without caffeine. Children love it too, making it a great family-friendly winter option.

C Tea House began as an extension of our family’s first restaurant, Crepes Tea House, where guests fell in love not only with our food but with the unique teas we served alongside it. What started as a small selection of loose-leaf blends quickly grew into a full passion project as more customers asked to take their favorite teas home. Over time, that demand inspired us to expand beyond the café and create C Tea House—our dedicated tea brand focused on high-quality loose-leaf teas, thoughtful blends, and a deeper connection to tea culture. Today, we continue the same mission: bringing comforting, flavorful teas to homes and families everywhere.
