Bird & Blend Tea Exeter celebrates Valentine’s Day with free Love Heart Tea
Bird & Blend Tea Exeter is celebrating Valentine’s Day with free Love Heart Tea for every customer, as 55% of Brits agree making your partner a cup of tea in bed is a sign of true romance.
A new study by Bird & Blend Tea Co. has revealed the 10 signs that prove true romance isn’t dead in the modern age.
2,014 Brits were asked what the true signs of a romantic in today’s world are, and making your partner a cup of tea topped the list with 55% saying this beats having a picture of their other half as a screensaver (44%).
Sharing a password to Netflix came in at number 9 in the list with 16% of those surveyed choosing this as a sign of romance, closely ahead of letting a partner choose the Deliveroo order at 12%.
To celebrate tea featuring as the number 1 in the true romance stakes, Bird & Blend Tea invite customers in for free sweet treats, including samples of Love Hearts Tea and Swizzels Love Hearts sweets which will be available with every purchase of the limited edition drink special ‘Love Hearts on Ice,’ (between 10th – 14th February, while stocks last) in the run up to Valentine’s Day at all stores across the UK - including their Exeter store located at 46 High Street.
