After teaching about tea for over 12 years and traveling all over selling and sampling our teas and products our #1 question has been “You’re so knowledgeable about tea, do you teach classes? Could you teach a class here? And when’s the next time you’ll be back in town?”
As some of you might know too well it’s very difficult to wrangle up your family and friends for events nowadays. Everyone is so busy going in 1 million different directions that how could you possibly find enough people to coordinate something that you are really interested in learning about. How can you get that personal experience with me?
So I created the Sipping Streams Universi-Tea. You will be able to order your tea class online, and receive all your supplies in the mail so you can have your own interactive hands on learning experience with me from the comfort of your own home! Your month long tea course can be done anywhere in the world as long as you have internet access and hot water!
Not only will you get all your supplies shipped to you, this tea program allows you to learn at your own pace and you can review the information as often as you’d like. Unlike a boring webinar, you will have weekly interactive support from me and my team. And it also makes an excellent gift for the tea lover in your life!
3 different & unique tea courses offered are: The Essence of Tea – An in-depth journey into the world of tea Matcha Madness – A Japanese tea ceremony that has taken the world by storm Kombucha Culture – How kombucha works, brewing and bottling techniques and more!

“It was awesome learning about teas and reading other people’s experiences…Jenny was so down to earth, informative and positive, that I couldn’t help but be positive right along with her. The whole experience made me want to learn more and almost wish that it went another couple of days.” -Crystal W.
“Learning to steep a cup of tea properly is probably the biggest thing I’ve learned. I love tea and now I realize I have been torching a lot of my teas. I’m going to go back and try some teas I have that I didn’t think I liked. Most likely I destroyed it by drowning it in boiling water. Appreciating the subtleties through different infusions is waking up my palate! Last night we learned about slurping. I slurped my Dragon Well tea and it gave up more sweet and floral notes I didn’t notice with just a sip. Let’s see what’s next!” - Christine Y.
