Our 10 Most Read Blog Posts
Since we began emailing a newsletter, we have written more than 200 unique blog posts. We've shared posts about many different aspects of tea, upcoming events and opportunities to support us, and, of course, the daily lives of the My Cup of Tea ladies.
When we launched our present website, most, but not all, blogs we had written made it onto the new platform. The new platform allowed us to track the number of times someone reads a specific blog. This made us curious about which posts generated the most interest, so we thought we would share them with you.
In the number one spot by far is The Magic of Green Tea. This informative blog post addresses all of the health benefits associated with green tea and how to enjoy it hot or cold. This post was read more than 8,000 times!
Perfect for the season and on the heels of National Chai Day, our second most-read blog is What is Chai? Like the post about green tea, this blog shares the origins of chai, explains its make up, and discusses how to best
enjoy the ancient beverage.
We struck rang in a New Year with the post We are the Resolute. This piece describes the journey of the ship The Resolute from warship to White House desk and the parallels to those who work at My Cup of Tea.
Learning about how the My Cup of Tea ladies were coping with the loss of fresh water following a major winter storm caught the interest of our readers. Water Water Everywhere comes in at number 4 in popularity.
Blogs with a "how to" them take the next three spots. The Ultimate Guide to Switching from Daily Coffee to Tea, 5 Teas That Help with Relaxation, and How to Make the Perfect Iced Tea garnered more than 1000 reads each.
Just in time for Halloween, our Spooky Mocktails post featuring links to a She Steeps video with Cheryl and Danyelle demonstrating the recipes delighted readers. Hopefully, it lead to some spooky fun too.
In the ninth and tenth places are two blogs offering insight to the struggles of My Cup of Tea women. In Poverty about More than Money, we explore why just having a job and a paycheck is not enough to lead someone out of poverty. And in Kintsugi: Embracing the Damage, we describe how we used an ancient Japanese artform to help the ladies process their trauma.
We are so grateful for all of you who read our blog and newsletters. For those of you who subscribed recently, we hope you enjoy these "new reads." For those who have been with us for a while, we hope these posts serve as a reminder of facts, recipes, and stories you may have forgotten.
