Finished in an elegant winter white, this decorative tea tin features enchanting Nutcracker characters surrounded by seasonal details, including vibrant poinsettias and festive greenery. The crisp white background gives the traditional Christmas artwork a bright, elegant feel, creating a beautiful keepsake to display throughout the festive season and enjoy for Christmases to come.
Inside are 40 English Afternoon teabags, offering a rich, full-bodied black tea with the comforting character of a classic British brew. Perfect for winter mornings, afternoon tea or sharing a warming cup with family and friends during the Christmas season.
At the heart of the Nutcracker collection is a celebration of friendship, togetherness and the comfort of sharing a good cup of tea. This collectable tin captures that sentiment beautifully, making it as much a thoughtful Christmas gift as it is a delicious festive treat.
Once the tea has been enjoyed, the reusable metal tea caddy can be displayed, collected or refilled with a favourite blend, allowing its charming Nutcracker design to return year after year.

Each December, as the last shop lights dim and the winter stars appear, Nettle comes to life to prepare for the most important occasion of the season: Christmas tea.
Biscuit lives in a tiny nook behind the kitchen cupboard, just close enough to hear when the kettle starts to sing. Every Christmas, the scent of freshly brewed tea draws him out of hiding and into the heart of the festivities.
Proud keeper of the Christmas tea tin, Nettle makes sure there's always time for tea — and room for one more guest.
Sugarplum Teaspoon arrives at every Christmas tea party with a twirl, a smile and a little pink bow. She loves helping Nettle set the table, though she has a habit of dancing between the cups as she goes.
Each December, she arrives beneath the evergreen branches with a little bundle of tea leaves tucked safely in her hands. She knows that the best cup begins with care, so she helps Nettle warm the pot.

Pour the water over the teabag in your favourite cup. Stir once and then wait. Once brewed to your taste, remove the bag. Add a splash of milk (if that's your thing) and stir. Try adding the milk to the cup first, for a smoother taste.
Top Tip
If you're after a builders brew in a mug, try doubling up on teabags.
Heat the pot with a little boiling water, and then pour away. Add your teabags to the pot and fill with fresh water, just off the boil. Stir once and steep for 3-5 minutes and you're ready to pour into your favourite cup. Add milk and sugar to taste. Pour the infusion into the milk for a smoother brew.
Top Tip
Adjust for different teapot sizes based on the rule of one teabag for every 200ml, with one for the pot.
