Here\u2019s a list of some pairs to give you some ideas.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Classics<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-910\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Yorkshire tea leaves\" width=\"152\" height=\"152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-260x260.jpg 260w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves-160x160.jpg 160w, https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Yorkshire-tea-leaves.jpg 1716w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 152px) 100vw, 152px\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nWhether it\u2019s Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, or Frankenstein, you\u2019ll need a strong, powerful cup of tea to<br \/>\naccompany these persistently timeless reads. For those brave enough to try something on the stronger side, Yorkshire tea with a little milk and sugar will be your faithful companion as you trek the mountains of Switzerland and the moors of northern England. For classics like Pride and Prejudice where proper etiquette is the law of the land, try something tamer like an English breakfast blend.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: left\"><strong>Young Adult Fiction<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-894\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Young-Adult-Tea-300x250.jpg\" alt=\"Young Adult Tea\" width=\"160\" height=\"136\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nAs you sit back and enjoy the tumultuous tribulations of your favorite John Green and Sarah Dessen heroines, enjoy something cool and refreshing. An icy blend of apple, peaches, and pineapples are key ingredients to a full-bodied taste. The dynamic characters who steal your hearts deserve a tea that equals their drive and likability. But it\u2019s YA, so it should still hold a bit of energy to it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: left\"><strong>Dystopian\/Fantasy<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-905\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Spicy-Tea-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"Spicy Tea\" width=\"164\" height=\"114\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nCome one, come all, to enjoy everything from The Hunger Games to The Lord of the Rings. These varied, compelling tales need a tea that is as varied and complex and the fantasy worlds they operate in. Try mixing ginger with lemongrass for a citrus kick without the caffeine. Want more of an adventure? Ginger tea mixed with peppercorns has a heat to rival Mount Doom. Mix in some mint instead of peppercorns and that heat will be followed by a refreshing resolution.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: left\"><strong>Romance<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-896\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Romance-Tea-300x240.jpg\" alt=\"Romance Tea\" width=\"167\" height=\"137\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nThings getting steamy? Chocolate and roses aren\u2019t just for Valentine\u2019s Day anymore. You can now find them in your favorite teas. Tea retailers like DAVIDsTEA and Teavana both offer special mix of black tea that incorporate these romantic ingredients. Rich, creamy, and slightly floral, set the perfect mood for a date night with your favorite romance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"clear: left\"><strong>Science Fiction<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-897\" src=\"https:\/\/orgs.emerson.edu\/undergraduate-students-publishing\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2017\/02\/Sci-Fi-tea-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Sci-Fi tea\" width=\"165\" height=\"115\" \/><\/strong><br \/>\nPu\u2019er teas are super rich and earthy, the ideal thing to keep you grounded as your adventure takes you through time and space. Often coming in a variety of flavors and blends, it will be easy to find the right one for whatever world you visit next. Pu\u2019er is a fermented black tea, which gives it its signature earthy flavor as well as more caffeine than your average cup of tea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Felicia Gullotta \/\/ Blog Writer Tea goes with books like peanut butter goes with jelly.
