I got me a nice (dishwasher-safe) stoneware teapot, and a tea strainer ball thingy.

The cold season is coming and I'm looking for a new evening habit of drinking a gallon of afternoon tea (instead of drinking a gallon of Cola...)

Anyone got any recommendations on this front?

Have a browse on Bird & Blend โ€“ I'm too broke for fancy tea nowadays, but they have so many types and flavours to try. You can get small bags of tealeaves just to get a taste for them before you commit to a full tin. And they send you sample teabags to try with every order.

They also do advent calendars which could be a good way to try a bunch of stuff!

My favourites were Earl Grey Creme and Monkey Chops. ๐ŸŒ

this. We did the bird and blend advent calendar a few years ago and have never looked back.

Came here to recommend the advent calendar too. Geat idea. Soo much good tea.

I'm partial to the chocolate digestive. Almost scratches that hot chocolate itch.

Their monthly tea subscription is my favourite!!
