This post is an invitation to know more about our tea culture in Guatemala city. I know that we live in a coffee culture country, but there are options for non-coffee drinkers or curious wanderers. For those that enjoy spending a nice evening watching the sunset while drinking tea.
My top favs are:
My #1 tea shop is Caravasar. Their blends are mystical, and I miss going to their restaurant. They do have an online shop, they launch monthly discounts. You should explore their catalog to find infusions and teas such as Oolong, Pu-erh, Masala, Rooibos, and more.
⭐ Tea Shop
This is my #2 tea shop. Their food menu includes special blends to enhance the flavor. The location in zone 10 is cozy and you can drink a delicious flavored Matcha with chocolate or peach. They also handle a blend that tastes like pumpkin spice among others.
On #3 we have Pachamama Blends. I went to their shop in Antigua Guatemala and I loved that I was able to customize my blend. They purchase dried fruits, chocolate, and spices from local farms and they're experts when it comes to preparing mocktails. They even built a special blend named Guatemalan Breakfast, to honor the fruity flavors of our country. Like the English Breakfast.
⭐ Teehaus
This is my #4 and I miss their store so much. I tasted a special blend under a huge tree. The store had tons of bins full of tea, books and I may say that they introduced me to the fascinating world of loose leaves.
⭐ My home (lol, I know)
I know, this is funny, but I didn't have a fifth option. My kitchen is my #5 because here I was able to master the most known masala chai. You can build your own tisanes by buying everyday spices and herbs at the local market. I encourage you to experiment with mint, cinnamon, cardamom, there´s no place like your kitchen.
I´m sure there are more spots, but most of them are resellers from the local shops that I mentioned.
