It is Mental Health Awareness month and Tania’s Tea House is encouraging everyone in need to TLC to head to its second branch Sereni-Tea, which is located at the Keyani wellness centre in Umm Seqeim.

While the professionals will be there to help, indulging in the cafe culture specialty of Tania’s Tea House can help improving your mental health.

Guests are encouraged to escape the nuances of one’s daily life whilst nourishing one’s mind, body, and soul with the help of anti-inflammatory ingredients that are gut-healing. Their aesthetic spaces with nourishing food can help build resilience and also provide an escapism, a break from the daily grind.

Having been diagnosed with chronic pain, an autoimmune disease & severe food allergies, Tania wanted to create a space that promotes holistic well-being, inclusive offerings friendly towards all dietary restriction, and the fun, yet informative promotion of ingredients that increase well-being (whether its a boost of serotonin to aid mood related disorders and anxiety, calming ingredients that ease digestion).

Well-being and self-love runs deeper than gimmicky quotes and captions, and is harder than it looks to implement, and we are here to remind you that your health (mental, physical, spiritual) needs nurturing and its not selfish to put any of that first. Enjoy our quirky themed coffee & tea latte art & our wellness-themed take-away cups to remind you that your well-being is essential and that you can’t pour from an empty cup…

 
SELF-CARE INDUCING TEAS
we see tea as more than just a beverage, but a way of life to increase holistic wellness. (see below for some teas we’ve highlighted as extremely beneficial to one’s mental and physical health) Dine-in Teas (we have over 30 flavors) with the option of having in the form of: black, iced, latte, or iced latte, with a wide range of nut mylk alternatives & the option of non-sugar sweeteners.
 
*all our teas are available for dine-in, take-away and retail packaging for online orders (check out our beau-tea-ful terrazzo, irrescent packaging)
DOPAMINE RELEASING + SEROTONIN BOOSTING TEAS
When released, dopamine, is a neurotransmitter that helps us regulate feelings of pleasure. Studies show that turmeric can help enhance one’s mood and releases dopamine. Along with enhancing one’s well-being, it also acts as an antioxidant and an anti-inflammatory. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter than plays a key role in our mood, sleep, digestion, muscle & bone health. Low serotonin levels can cause poor sleep, inflammation, depression and anxiety. High serotonin can therefore aid our sleep, mood, and reduce inflammation and pain. L-theanine, and ingredient found in teas, and ginger have both proved to increase serotonin.
 
Check out our flavors below that release dopamine and boost serotonin:
Golden glow (ginger, turmeric, carrot, beet, pineapple & calendula petals)
A magical elixir of ginger, turmeric, carrot, beet, and pineapple that aids skin, hair and cell repair, aids inflammation, full of antioxidants and releases dopamine.
Turmeric Ginger (black tea, turmeric, calendula, peaches & ginger)
Dopamine-releasing Turmeric meets sultry ginger (which reduces inflammation & boosts serotonin) & peach (which is high in vitamin C and aids ones’ immunity)
Sereni-Tea (turmeric root, fennel, bamboo, orange peel, elderflower, cardamom, dandelion leaves & burdock root)
Tastes like a trip to the spa, with digestive-healing, soothing ingredients such as turmeric, bamboo, elderflower, dandelion, and cardamom. Releases dopamine and aids inflammation.

 Elevate your coffee experience with The Brew Crew’s Cold Brew and Nitro Brew

Published

Why limit International Coffee Day celebrations to just one day? The Brew Crew believes every day can be a celebration of brewing up special treats for coffee lovers, which is why the cafe located in Dubai Investment Park (DIP) 2, Dubai, is now delivering unique coffee experiences in a can. In their continuous quest to enhance customer experience, they’ve worked on elevating their delivery menu with new signature offerings — Nitro Coffee and unique Nitro Infused beverages — all in a can and dine-in too. Isn’t that exciting?

Once the coffee grounds are steeped in water (room temperature) for about 16-18 hours — the slow extraction process makes the cold brew, which is more intense than a regular drip coffee. Cold Brew is literally a concentrated coffee drink. And, what’s Nitro Brew? Nitro Brew is a cold-brewed coffee infused with nitrogen gas. So, whether you prefer the subtly sweet, creamy body, and smooth finish of a

Nitro Brew, or the mellow, smooth, and mild acidity of the Cold Brew, The Brew Crew has a brew for everyone. Both the beverages are priced at Dh15, 300ml. The other Infused beverages are complex in preparation, but the taste profile is tropical, sporty, and fizzy. The Nitro allows the drinks to be more full-bodied and memorable.

“We realised that the options for Dubai coffee aficionados to experience Cold and Nitro brews were limited, so we decided to add them to the menu. Similarly, we also wanted to provide a product for non-coffee drinkers in the UAE. And of course, we didn’t want to restrict it to only as a dine-in option, so here we are offering the brew in a can for a takeaway or delivery,” said Ashjeet, Founder, The Brew Crew.

The cafe is also home to a temperature and humidity-controlled facility, which includes a nouvelle Brew Bar in action, a Roasting Training Campus, and a Green Coffee Storage, which is where the magic happens. The Brew Crew is renowned for its commitment to delivering a unique coffee experience and opened its doors to coffee aficionados in September 2023. The caféopens its doors at 9 am and serves until 6 pm, Monday through Saturday. At the location, you can indulge in various other roasted favourites, other than, of course, ordering the Cold Brew and Nitro Brew, whenever you please.
