The Best Loose Leaf Teas to Savor in Fall
Posted by Ricardo R. Matos, Founder of Tea The World on Mar 27th 2025
1. Masala Chai
Black tea with warming spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and cloves is the ultimate fall drink. Simmer it with milk for a classic chai, or add a spoonful of pumpkin purée and a pinch of nutmeg for a homemade pumpkin spice chai. Try our Masala Chai Loose Leaf Tea.
2. Apple Cinnamon Herbal Tea
Sweet apple and warm cinnamon taste like fall in a cup, and it’s naturally caffeine-free for cozy evenings. Add a cinnamon stick or a slice of fresh apple for a cider-like treat. Try our Apple Cinnamon Herbal Tea.
3. Earl Grey Bravo
Bright bergamot over bold black tea is lovely on a crisp afternoon. Make it a London Fog with steamed milk and a touch of vanilla, or add a pinch of dried lavender for a floral twist. Try Earl Grey Bravo.
4. Irish Breakfast
A bold, malty black tea for chilly mornings, perfect with milk and a drizzle of maple syrup. Try our Irish Breakfast.
5. Rooibos
Naturally caffeine-free and slightly sweet, rooibos pairs beautifully with cinnamon or a splash of milk for a late-night cup. Try Green Rooibos Bonita.
6. Raspberry Hibiscus Oolong
Fruity and vibrant, this oolong brings a bright note to grey fall days, hot or iced. Try Raspberry Hibiscus Oolong.
