You either love it or you hate it, but even the Valentine's Day Grinch could hardly resist the sweet and flavorful cup of Valentine's Day tea. You have probably already done your loose leaf tea shopping and if you haven't bought the perfect tea for the love-celebrating occasion, we might have a few ideas for you.

Make your Own Valentine's Day Tea

For making your own blend you need your favourite type of pure tea and a few basic ingredients. We made a list of the best love tea ingredients that will surely make any tea sweet or spicy and an evening with your loved one either full of hot moments or peacefully relaxed.

Ginger – ginger is the most precious spices to have in your kitchen. Not only it's great for boosting immune system, it is also known as a great bedroom spice.

Sugar hearts – they are super cute and will make the tea visually attractive and sweet.

Dark chocolate drops –dark chocolate is known as the libido enhancer. Besides, it tastes great increases happiness and adds creamy texture to the tea.

Chili – for those needing a bit of extra heat, chili is the ingredient to choose. Don't use powder, choose 1-3 small dried chili peppers per cup.

Damiana – one of the most famous herbs when libido and fertility enhancing are in question. Choose dry flowers.

Rose petals - if you are looking to add a bit of beauty and sensuality to our tea or just want to relax, choose dry rose petals or buds.

Cinnamon – adding a bit of cinnamon will not only make you happy, but it is said that it can also increase the sex drive.

Pomegranate –Pomegranate has been used as an aphrodisiac fruit for centuries. If you don't have dried seeds, use pure fruit juice and make a great rooibos or white tea latte.

Guarana – Although guarana is used as a bedroom herb in some countries, we included it on our list because it is a great substitute for coffee that will make you awake for hours.

Pine nuts – Even the old Romans used pine nuts as the libido enhancer. Not only do they taste great, but they will look very appealing in your cup of tea. Add them to a cup and eat after drinking.

What to blend with what?

We recommend you start with small quantities and just add a small amount of one ingredient. Don't use more than one at first as the result might be different from what you have expected. Black tea goes great with guarana, cinnamon, rose petals, damiana, dark chocolate drops (or cacao nibs!), ginger, chili and sugar hearts. Green tea blends well with pomegranate, ginger, rose petals, guarana and pine nuts. White tea is almost the best option for chili, rose petals and pomegranate and rooibos goes great with chili, cinnamon and dark chocolate. You can try any combination, or drink herbs like damiana, ginger or rose petals on their own.
