👀😊 Sip Happens! — Do You Speak Tea? 😊👀

Hi, my tea peeps!

It's been a while since I've done something just for fun in the newsletter. So I thought, let's do one on tea slang or "Do you speak tea?"

These sassy sayings will make you smile, and you can even use them in your daily conversations, adding a touch of wit to your interactions.

Let's boost your vocabulary and have some fun. I can't wait to hear what you think about these.

"Spill the Tea"

Meaning: Share the gossip. Dish the drama. Serve the secrets.

Used in a sentence: "Omg, you have to call me later—Emily said she has tea to spill."

"No Tea, No Shade"

Meaning: I'm just being honest—not trying to be rude.

Used in a sentence: "No tea, no shade, but grocery store tea doesn't cut it."

"Sweet Tea Energy"

Meaning: Someone kind and comforting, and maybe a little Southern grandma in vibe.

Used in a sentence: "She brought me soup and cookies and did my laundry. That's sweet tea energy."

Tea Word of the Week: Cha

Fun Fact: "Cha" is the word for tea in many Asian languages—Mandarin, Korean, Japanese, and more. So when someone says "cha-chat," they might just mean a cozy tea convo.
