# [Mason’s Orange Vanilla Wake-Up Tea with Vanilla Bean](https://blog.mountainroseherbs.com/sunday-steep-3)

*From our weekly series: The Sunday Steep*

This delicious tea recipe came to our Events Coordinator, Mason, in a dream! We wanted to call it Mason's Dream Tea, but that name implies a soothing sleepy tea and this blend will definitely stimulate the senses.

This recipe mixes smooth black tea with a strong flavor of extra rich vanilla and peppy orange peel. We liked it with a little sweet honey and milk for a super delectable treat - the perfect beverage for a Sunday morning brunch!
