My Tea Story| How It All Began with Ahmad Mint Mystique

If you follow me on Instagram, then you already know it’s not just about Ahmad Mint Mystique. ‘Oma loves her tea’!

I cannot quite recollect when my love for tea began. I know that back in Secondary School, I opted for Ovaltine when others went for Milo. I also liked Lipton at the time or should I say, that was the only black tea bag that I had access to.

Introducing Ahmad Mint Mystique (flavoured green tea with mint leaves)

A few years later, I stumbled on Ahmad Mint Mystique. I cannot explain how my taste bud absorbed that blend so easily. I guess when you see results with a product, every other thing is probably inconsequential. I must have discovered the tea at a time when I was doing my research about green teas and then, I also was loving the idea of mint because I must have read or heard somewhere that mint helps to curb hunger. Then, the price point. I used to get for less than N600 at Shoprite supermarket in Ikeja City Mall.

Shoprite was my plug for a very long time. Though, the blend always went out of stock so fast. People must have discovered this treasure and copping it in bulk. Thankfully, I found it in Spar and when Shoprite eventually stopped to carry it, Spar became the new spot. In October 2019 when I got back from my usual Europe Vacation, I couldn’t find the tea anymore. However, owing to what the tea does for my body, I wasn’t ready to give up easily.

Why I really Love Ahmad Mint Mystique

Ahmad Mint Mystique is the only tea blend that aids my bowel activities instantaneously. Now, I guess some of my other tea blends may very well be helping with detoxification in other ways. However, none like Mint Mystique. I could gulp a cup right now and have result in 15minutes max. It also helps me to feel lighter and, if I need to feel energetic in carrying on with my duties, it also helped. Well, tea generally warms me up. So, I won’t be giving Mint Mystique all that credit. If you missed my June 2020 haul video, I mentioned my new plug for the Mint Mystique.

My Tea Collection

Well, this isn’t just about the Ahmad Mint Mystique but rather, my recent tea collection. However, I thought to let you into the beginning of my tea journey may very well help you to appreciate why I have come to love tea and hopefully, you get to further appreciate the YouTube video on My Tea Collection.

In the video, I shared with you, what tea blends I currently have, what I am looking to give away and my most recent additions. I also tried to touch on why I chose some of the blends and my recent discovery of homegrown herbal tea brands in Nigeria. I hope that you enjoy this video:
