Twenty-five individually sewn teabag envelopes, each dated from 1st to 25th December and featuring its own original festive design, make every morning of Advent something to look forward to.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Choose a single flavour to carry you through the whole of December, or go for the Assorted Mixed Flavours option for a daily surprise: you will not know what tea is waiting for you on any given morning until you open the envelope, which turns every cup into a small and very pleasant mystery. The flavours are included inside each envelope regardless of which option you choose.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">The set comes boxed and ready to give, making it a genuinely lovely Christmas gift as well as a brilliant treat for yourself. It is suitable for vegans (unlike most chocolate advent calendars), suitable for diabetics (no sugar), and available in naturally caffeine-free options for anyone who is pregnant or simply prefers to keep things gentle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Order early to make sure yours arrives in time.

There is no sugar in this advent calendar, which makes it a suitable choice for diabetics. Research also suggests that caffeine does not have a significant impact on blood sugar levels, so even the caffeinated tea options should be fine for most people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"><strong>Are the teas suitable for someone who is pregnant?<\/strong> Yes, with the right flavour choice. Simply select the Mixed Flavours option and include a note with your order confirming that you would like naturally caffeine-free teas, and we will make sure the selection is suitable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"><strong>Can I order an empty advent calendar to fill with my own tea?<\/strong> Yes.
