Grab your popcorn & hold onto your mugs, Bird & Blend spooky season is officially here!
This year, we’re dimming the lights, rolling out the red carpet, & taking inspiration from the golden age of cinema with our 50s B-Movie Horror inspired campaign.
Expect campy thrills, cinematic chills, &, of course, the most bewitching blends you’ve ever tasted. Halloween isn't just one night, it’s a whole season of "Spooky," & we’re here to help you drink your way through every twist & turn.
Whether you’re a fan of creature features or classic gothic tales, we’ve got a brew to match your movie marathon vibe. Here is your official tea-pairing guide for a horror-filled 2026.
The Headliner: Cherrified! Tea
Our absolute favorite spooky legend has returned to the screen (and your tea cupboard). Cherrified! Tea is the star of our collection, themed around those wonderfully over-the-top, bright red, blood-curdling horror classics. This fruit infusion is vibrant, tart, & perfect for when you want a little bit of drama in your mug. Whether you brew it hot for a gothic evening or iced for a "killer" refreshment, Cherrified! Tea is the main character you’ve been waiting for.
We would pair this blend with The Blob, it’s campy, scary premise is perfect for the zesty, fun refreshing cherry vibes of this blend, especially cold brewed in lemonade!
The Creature Feature: Spearmint Scream Matcha
Prepare to be startled (in the best way possible). Our Spearmint Scream Matcha is back from the archives to haunt your taste buds. This isn’t just a matcha; it’s a cooling, peppermint-packed experience that feels like a crisp chill in the air of a haunted mansion. It’s vibrant, green, & wonderfully fresh, the perfect companion for when you’re watching a black-and-white classic where the monster is lurking just around the corner.
This blend goes perfectly with classic favourite The Creature From The Black Lagoon, it’s unexpected, swampy & thrilling!
The Cozy Chaos: Toasted Marshmallow Matcha
Every good horror movie needs a moment of suspense by the campfire, & that’s exactly where our Toasted Marshmallow Matcha shines. This fan-favorite returns with its iconic, sweet, & smoky flavor profile. It’s the ultimate comfort drink. Imagine the cozy warmth of a bonfire mixed with the magic of our premium matcha. It’s sweet enough to distract you from the jump scares but complex enough to keep you coming back for more.
The Midnight Gathering: Campfires & Vampires Tea
For the ultimate gothic encounter, sink your fangs into our Campfires & Vampires blend. This tea brings a dark, smoky depth that pairs perfectly with the mystery of classic vampire cinema. It’s brooding, intense, & essential for any marathon featuring the Transylvanian classics.
Pair this with Horror of Dracula, duh! The Christopher Lee classic is perfectly gothic, romantic & scary - what more could you want?
The Seasonal Classic: Spiced Pumpkin Chai
No horror season is complete without the classics. We're bringing back our heavy hitters to set the scene, & Spiced Pumpkin Chai is the number 1. The quintessential autumn drink, perfect for those slow-burn suspense films where the autumn leaves fall and the shadows lengthen.
We would brew this up whilst watching The Hound of The Baskervilles, a classic Sherlock Holmes tale steeped in scary folklore, which still feels cozy overall!
The Fan Favourite: Baby Spice Tea
A lighter, nostalgic twist on classic spices that pairs wonderfully with lemonade cold brewed, or as a warming cuppa. Caffiene free, full of magical spices and sure to get you in the seasonal swing - this blend was Co-founder Mike’s favourite for years!
Cold Brew Baby Spice in lemonade and pop on House of Wax, like Baby Spice, this is a bit of a sleeper hit but those who love it, LOVE it! Spooky Vincent Price & a waxwork museum, say less!
The Kettle Screamer: Bonfire Toffee Tea
Rich, sweet, & smoky, this blend is the perfect accompaniment for stories set around a crackling campfire, or anywhere the monsters are lurking in the woods.
Lets pair this one with House on Haunted Hill, the plot follows an eccentric millionaire who offers five strangers $10,000 each to spend a night locked in a spooky mansion, resulting in a web of murder plots, ghosts, & betrayals - you’ll need a comforting cuppa to see you through!
