If you’re anything like me, you find shopping for Mother’s Day gift sets a bit of a challenge. Moms these days have everything they need. That’s why each year its gets harder and harder to come up with a truly unique and heartfelt Mother’s Day gift.
Forget about candy or chocolate gift baskets. Does she really need another wine gift, bottle of perfume or cheese gift box? Plus didn’t you already give her a facial or massage last year?
This Mother’s Day show mom that you put a lot of thought into her present. Get her a unique tea-inspired mother’s day gift set that will surprise her. Why tea? For one thing, tea is the most popular beverage worldwide, after water according to recent statistics. But that’s not the real reason to choose tea this year.
Tea is More Than a Beverage, It’s An Experience
Enjoying a beautiful, aromatic cup of tea warms the soul. It can cheer mom up when she’s feeling sad. It’s something social she can do with her friends. Most importantly, you can spend quality time together by sharing a nice cup of delicious tea.
Many cultures celebrate tea with elaborate traditions and customs. Giving your mom tea instead of the usual candy gift baskets will send a clear message that she deserves something special. She’s important. She matters. She’s the best mom ever!
Personally I love tea. A lot! I love it so much that I started this blog. In my own quest for the perfect gift discovery, I’ve come across teas and accessories that are unique treasures. So I’m sharing some of them here with you with a fair degree of certainty that you will have a very happy mother on your hands if you present her with any of following:
Tea Gift Baskets That Will Warm Your Mom’s Heart
As far as my top pick for Mother’s Day gift sets go, these gorgeous Collections From Teabox are really special. Teabox is a homegrown brand situated at the foothills of the Himalayas. They specialize in the world’s freshest Indian teas you can find. You definitely can’t get these at your local Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods.
Teabox gift sets are incredibly fresh. Pro tip: yes, freshness matters. I can’t tell you how many times I purchased tea gift box sets that were old and stale. So be careful. You don’t have to worry about freshness with Teabox. You can expect your teas to arrive within a seven day delivery – farm to table. Now that’s incredible freshness!
I personally recommend the Fleur: Gourmet Tea Gift Set because it offers a little bit of everything. It’s a delightful collection to enjoy in the evening or day gift box. You’ll find black tea, green tea, white tea, fruit, florals and spice. Your mom will adore this one. The gift box packaging is stunning. You don’t even have to gift wrap it.

Oh Tea Pots, How I Love Thee!
I firmly believe that you absolutely cannot have a magical tea experience without a fabulous teapot. PRO TIP: teapots aren’t just for loose leaf tea. You can use tea bags in them too. Although the experience is a little more ‘everyday’, which is not necessarily a bad thing if you’re in a hurry.
If you search online there’s an overwhelming selection of teapots to choose from. So how do you know which one will make the best gift? Of course I have my favorite teapot in each category: cast iron, glass and porcelain.
Cast Iron
In the unlikely event your mom doesn’t already own a teapot, this high quality Japanese Cast Iron Tea Pot is absolutely essential. It features a comfortable handle and ergonomic design. I’m not going to lie, the price is a little steep on this one so it’s definitely an investment. I think it’s totally worth it. I’ve had mine for over 10 years and it still looks great. The quality is so good you may inherit this from your mother one day.

The exquisite cast iron pot between 200ml-5L improves water quality. The cast iron pot makes the water softer and sweet and can also improve the taste of the teas, which is easy to use and clean
Glass
Your mom will love this Big Glass Teapot with Removable Infuser Filter. It reminds me of this quote by Abraham Lincoln “If this is coffee, please bring me some tea; but if this is tea, please bring me some coffee.” You see it’s both a tea and coffee pot so you can’t go wrong with this level of versatility. I’m warning you now, if you gift your mother this one she will have to hide it somewhere because other family members will want to use it too.

This versatile teapot can be used to make your favorite loose tea and functions as a coffee maker.
Porcelain
Chances are your mother already owns a porcelain teapot. All moms have one. It’s my personal opinion, however, that you can never have too many porcelain teapots. They come in so many different colors, shapes and sizes that you can collect twenty of them and still want another want. I just love this Dragonfly and Floral Porcelain Tea Pot in Gift Box. It’s so feminine and posh. Reminds me of my own mom entertaining friends on Sunday afternoon.
