Since we’ve moved across the country, I’ve found all sorts of wonderful new and local yummy favourite things. Like this tea.
Le Temps des Cerises is a local company that I am falling in love with for their original flavoured coffees and teas. Today it’s about tea! My two prefered teas are (so far) are their number 2 La Javanaise and number 4 La Vie en Rose. They are green teas and they are both delicate and delightful all at the same time! The teas are also named after famous songs, which I find really cute.
La Javanaise is a gentle combination flavours : berries, lime and vanilla. Why didn’t I think of that combination myself? It of course smells so wonderful, and it’s got a lovely, lively taste.
La Vie en Rose is jasmine, raspberries and grapefruit and it’s a great mid-morning or mid-afternoon pick-me-up with that citrus pizzaz. It’s not bitter at all, and the grapefruit taste is really complimentary to the mellow jasmine.
Who wants some tea? This giveaway is open to everyone. Just leave a comment on this post before next Friday’s giveaway (so before midnight on November 18th France time). I’ll pick two winners – just be sure and let me know which flavour you’d rather have!

Oh my goodness, both those teas sound amazing. In Canada (+ maybe in the US, too?) there is a lingerie store chain called la vie en rose and I definitely didn’t know that the phrase came from a song. In any case, the javanaise sounds more my speed – thanks for the giveaway! 🙂 -Eve
Ooh I’d love me some tea! I think both of them sounds great, so I wouldn’t really care which one.
Tea from France – yes, please. What unique flavour combinations. They both sounds amazing.
I love trying new teas. They both sound intriguing but I think the Javanaise would be my first choice. I have a MoFo giveaway on my blog of a teacosy.
oh! please send some tea my way! both flavors look so yummy, I don<t care what kind.
Oooh, I love tea!! I think I’d actually prefer the berry combo, but jasmine is closer to green tea, which is the type I’m allowed to drink. . . so I’ll go with that one. 🙂
What lovely teas! I’m always on the hunt for different and interesting blends. My mom is really into tea too, so it’s a nice little thing we can share together. 🙂
Oh, Sam. He’s as cute as ever!
La vie en rose. Ther was a restaurant called that. Unfortunately it’s gone now. And now I bought a book about French desserts, also called La vie en rose. And now you come along with that tea. It sounds wonderful.
