Our Tea Blending Workshop is the perfect way to dive into the world of tea, whether you're a long-time tea lover or just getting started!


Join us for a delightful afternoon where you'll learn about different herbs, teas, and the art of blending. Discover how to pair flavors, steep your perfect cup, and explore the health benefits of each ingredient. Plus, we’ll spice things up with a fun tea game and a chance to win a prize!

You’ll also have the option to create a refreshing spring or summer blend, plus experiment with simple syrup flavors to give your tea a deliciously sweet twist.

MEET THE MAKER:

Lori, “The Tea Lady”, Founder & Master Tea Blender, Savory Blends Tea Co.

Based in Richmond, VA, Lori is a lifelong tea enthusiast turned entrepreneur, world traveler, and passionate tea educator. Her journey with tea began as a personal obsession—curating unique blends from her travels and exploring the medicinal power of herbs. Today, that passion has blossomed into Savory Blends Tea Co., a handcrafted loose-leaf tea brand rooted in wellness, culture, and creativity.

Inspired by an article in Essence magazine about entrepreneurship, Lori felt a spark—one that led her to turn her deep love of tea into a purpose-driven business. Her mission is simple but powerful: to turn tea skeptics into believers, one flavorful steep at a time. Lori specializes in custom wellness blends and loves sharing the healing power of tea through workshops, themed tea parties, community events, and tea catering experiences. Her work has been featured in The Richmond Times-Dispatch, YurView 757, Style Weekly, and she's proud to be a 2024 Fed Ex & Comcast RISE Award recipient.
