Love Oprah? Love tea? Then you’re in luck. Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks, has announced a partnership which will see Oprah Winfrey help create a special tea.

The Teavana Oprah Chai Tea will be sold from 29 April, with Starbucks to make a donation to the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy Foundation for each product sold.

“I looove tea,” Oprah Winfrey said. “When Howard Schultz offered to have me come into the Starbucks tasting room and create my very own tea blend, I thought that sounded like such a unique opportunity and fun to the tenth power. To share one of my favorite things with the rest of the world and support youth education at the same time is truly the perfect blend."

The tea is described as ‘a bold infusion of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and cloves’, and will be available in handcrafted latte and loose-leaf tea formats.
