Gingerbread dreams

'Tis the Season for Treats

This blend was born from a very specific kind of holiday memory: the kind that lives in your senses long after the season has packed up and left. Icing sugar snow blanketing a rooftop. Candy lights lining the eaves. Jujube reindeer grazing on a lawn of green sprinkles (if you grew up in BC) or a cozy meadow of marshmallow (if you're from somewhere with snowy winters). The gingerbread house so lovingly constructed you could hardly bear to touch it. You may not have a few spare hours to replicate your aunt's prize-winning gingerbread recipe this December, but you absolutely have a few minutes to steep that sweetness into your cup.

A Sip from the Source

At the heart of Gingerbread Dreams is guayusa. It’s the traditional drink of Ecuador, long cherished by the Kichwa people for its natural sweetness and gentle, grounding energy. A member of the holly family (Ilex, same as yerba maté), guayusa offers a clean, beautifully sweet base that needs nothing added. It is the perfect canvas for warm holiday spice. A little caffeine. A lot of sweetness. And the kind of quiet energy that carries you through a Canadian winter and the holiday season without the jolt.

Tasting Notes

Naturally sweet guayusa blends with rooibos to offer a based for warm notes of ginger, cinnamon, and baking spice. Clean and comforting with a smooth, lingering finish. Warming and wonderful on its own; a dream with a touch of oat milk. Enjoy a gingerbread cookie in your cup.

The Intention

To fill you with sweetness and bring you delightful daydreams of gingerbread houses, candlelit kitchens, and all the small, sweet moments that make the season worth savouring.

Let Steeping Calm become the ritual that brings the sweetness of the season back to you, one unhurried cup at a time.
