Jeopar-tea Challenge

By Katherine Burnett

I've always been a fan of the TV show, Jeopardy and since the death of Alex Trebek, there have been many guest hosts keeping the excitement of competitive learning alive. At Lady Baker's Tea, we've really been enjoying such diverse blog entries over the years on our website. It really is fascinating to explore the many ideas of tea! You'll find most of the questions to these answers in our blogs. Have fun and let us know how you did. Keep your eyes open for upcoming Facebook posts, where we plan to continue to excite you with all things tea!
