Story
The observance of the day of Jesus' birth was long in coming. In particular, during the first two centuries of Christianity there was strong opposition to recognizing birthdays of martyrs or, for that matter, of Jesus. Numerous church fathers offered sarcastic comments about the pagan custom of celebrating birthdays when, in fact, saints and martyrs should be honored on the days of their martyrdom - their true "birthdays," from the church's perspective.
"The orange zest is strong and can be off-putting if you're not used to spicy tea, but after trying a few cups I got used to it and came to love it."
"I had hoped it would have had a stronger orange flavor but it was good."
"The flavor is strong, but I'm giving it 4 stars because it does require a little sweetener."
"This is a good, favorful tea. A very good Wintertime tea."
"Christmas tea is very aromic, full of flavors. Said to my husband, it is like drinking a wreath!"
"I didn't love this one. I'll stick with Oriental Spice."
