Judi Slack designs her crossword puzzles to challenge our tea vocabulary. In this month’s challenge, you are very likely to need some resources to complete the puzzle. The September Tea Crossword not only challenges your tea knowledge but requires a bit of international tea study. We sincerely hope that this challenge introduces you to something new. To make it fun rather than frustrating, we have provided a word list below. Filling in the puzzle on the page (electronic version) will tell you immediately if you’re correct when the word you type turns green vs. red. But if you opt to print the PDF, you may have to consult the answer key to check your work.

We recommend pairing this activity with an equally stimulating cup of tea. 

Best of luck.  Enjoy!
