This year, Fredsted’s Spiced Christmas Tea brings a taste of Danish hygge straight to your teacup or mug, a festive infusion that captures the warmth, spice, and comfort of the season in every sip.
A Taste of Danish Tradition
Fredsted is a beloved Danish tea brand, founded in 1917, known for its carefully balanced blends and elegant simplicity.
Their Spiced Christmas Tea is a true celebration of Nordic Christmas traditions, where gatherings by candlelight and comforting flavours play a central role.
This festive tea combines classic black tea with warming winter spices, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and orange peel, creating a fragrant aroma that instantly fills the room with Christmas cheer. It’s one of those blends that doesn’t just taste festive; it smells like Christmas.
The Flavour Experience
Brewed for three to five minutes, Fredsted’s spiced blend delivers a rich amber cup with smooth black tea notes that balance perfectly with the sweet heat of cinnamon and clove. The hint of citrus adds brightness, while the subtle cardamom gives it a distinctly Scandinavian twist.
It’s delicious enjoyed on its own, but adding a splash of warm milk or a drizzle of honey brings out even more of its comforting character. Pair it with buttery shortbread, ginger biscuits, or a slice of Christmas stollen for the ultimate winter indulgence.
Perfect for Gifting (or Keeping!)
Beautifully packaged in festive red and gold, Fredsted Spiced Christmas Tea also makes a lovely seasonal gift. Add it to a homemade hamper, tuck it into a stocking, or include it in a “cosy night in” bundle with a mug, candle, and blanket. It’s a thoughtful way to share the warmth of the season.
Where to Find It
Fredsted teas are available through select European retailers and online, often appearing in Christmas-themed gift selections or international food shops. For UK tea lovers, keep an eye out for it in Scandinavian import stores, such as Søstrene Grene or on Amazon, it’s well worth the search.
A Cup Full of Christmas Spirit
In every sip of Fredsted Spiced Christmas Tea, there’s a little taste of Denmark’s festive soul, comforting, aromatic, and full of gentle joy. Whether you’re trimming the tree, wrapping presents, or simply watching the lights twinkle, this tea is the perfect companion for a truly cosy Christmas moment.
