Magical Tea Making: Mix Your Own Herbal Tea Blend

Alchymis is hosting a herbal tea blending workshop on Saturday 22 August, led by master herbalist Caitlin. It's a hands-on session where you get to pick and mix your own custom blend rather than just buying something off a shelf.

Caitlin describes the process as a ritual of selecting and blending, and she frames it as part magic, part medicine. The idea is to blend with intention, putting together a mix meant to fuel your body, mind and spirit. You'll work through the different herbs and how they fit together, and by the end you'll have your own 50g package to take home and brew whenever you fancy.

If Saturday doesn't work, there's a second session on Friday 28 August. The Saturday one runs from 14:00 to 15:00, and the Friday one is later, from 18:00 to 19:00. Both are an hour long, so it's a relatively quick way to spend an afternoon or evening and walk away with something you've actually made yourself.

Alchymis is at 3 Bank Chambers, Preston Circus, BN1 4JQ, right in the heart of Brighton. Tickets are £40.00, and you'll leave with your 50g blend in hand.
