The Top Destinations to Visit in 2026, According to Vrbo

Jessica Andrews — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 10:30:00 -0700

With the spring season kicking into full gear, now's an opportune time to start securing your travel plans for the rest of the year. When coordinating trips in the US and beyond, I always start with lodging: Do I want to stay in a hotel or rental? How close (or far) do I want to be from a major city? And what amenities are on my must-have list? I tend to gravitate more toward rentals than hotels so I can take advantage of the creature comforts associated with home, from a fully stocked kitchen to a private pool I can enjoy at any time. So Vrbo's newly released list of the top vacation homes of the year is a go-to guide when I'm choosing the best rentals - and destinations - to have on my radar.

From a desert oasis in Palm Desert, California to a poolside paradise in Sag Harbor, New York, there's no shortage of places to explore in 2026. And about those previously mentioned amenities: infinity pools, private saunas, steam rooms, outdoor bathtubs, mini-golf courses, sunken jacuzzis, art studios, and movie theaters are only some of the luxuries you can indulge in at these destinations. Whether you're looking for a weekend getaway in Park City, Utah, or a week in Big Sky, Montana, keep scrolling for the best places to travel this year, according to Vrbo.

The Y2K Teen Bedroom Is Back, Baby

When I was designing my childhood bedroom in the early 2000s, I had a clear vision: periwinkle walls, a canopy bed with tie-dye bedding, a lava lamp, and a carefully curated corkboard collage pinned with Hannah Montana posters, photos with friends, and Tiger Beat magazine cutouts. The shelves were lined with Lisa Frank memorabilia, more Webkinz than you could count on two hands, endless CDs, and just about every Limited Too and Club Libby Lu accessory imaginable. Life was good, simple, and kind.

Now, more than 20 years later, the youths have rediscovered the magic of a beaded curtain, and Gen Z seems to be pulling interior design inspiration from the early 2000s. Many are also romanticizing over-the-top Disney Channel bedrooms, "retro" aesthetics, and the charm of a slightly artificial color palette (think: bubblegum pink, frosty blue, and electric green).

"Everything feels so boring and beige these days, and I'm going to do everything I can to make sure my daughter isn't a boring and beige little girl," says Olivia Dobson, a 28-year-old mother of three who designed a Y2K-themed nursery for her newborn. "I had the best, most magical childhood in the 2000s, and I've always wanted to give my daughter that same sense of girlhood."

Rebecca Goesling is a trend forecaster and the director of product design at the Goesling Group, a residential design firm.

Olivia has been collecting Y2K decor for her daughter's nursery for the past seven years - long before she had kids or even knew she'd have a daughter. "My two oldest kids are boys, so everyone thought I was crazy for collecting all this girly stuff," she says. "But I always knew I wanted my daughter to have a Y2K-themed bedroom, so whenever I came across something too good to pass up, I'd buy it and set it aside for safekeeping."

Some of the nursery decor, like Olivia's beloved Webkinz, came from her own childhood, but nearly everything else was thrifted. "They just don't make things the way they used to, and the quality was so much better back in the 2000s, so about 95 percent of my daughter's nursery is thrifted," she tells PS.

A few of her favorite thrift finds include hot-pink polka dot picture frames (with zebra print accents, of course), a killer Groovy Girls collection, and a light pink canopy draped above the crib. "My daughter also has the most insane Y2K purse collection, and she's not even a year old," Olivia adds.

But that same nostalgia isn't just showing up in nurseries. "I always dreamed of having a huge walk-in closet filled with Juicy Couture, like Paris Hilton had back in the day, so when I was able to afford it in my 30s, I figured, why the hell not?" says 36-year-old Kara Pavlik who transformed a spare bedroom into a Y2K oasis.

The hot pink room, which doubles as both a walk-in closet and an office, features a fuzzy full-length mirror, a zebra-print ceiling, a pink sparkly disco ball, and a whole lot of animal print. The closet installation, complete with a beaded curtain, is fully stocked with Juicy Couture sweatsuits and Viva La Juicy logo tees. "I made my high school dreams a reality in my mid-30s," Kara says. "Forget 2026, I'm stuck in 2006."

Like Olivia, some of Kara's decor came from her own childhood, but much of it was thrifted or purchased on Etsy. "I made the high heel chair and the built-in closet system myself and decorated the lamps with funky materials I sourced from Etsy and local craft stores," she says. "I've always been drawn to bold colors and patterns, so I fully leaned into that aesthetic to make the space feel fun, nostalgic, and like you're going back in time."

For both Kara and Olivia, Y2K isn't just about style; it's a joyride to their happiest memories, a way to celebrate their younger selves, and a chance to relive a time when life perhaps felt more carefree, natural, and bursting with color. "I think a lot of us are just trying to reconnect with our inner child, back when life was simpler and technology didn't rule everything," Kara says. "I was so much happier in the 2000s, and when I walk into my Y2K-decorated room, I feel like I'm transported right back into that era."

A major appeal of Y2K decor is the ability to hit rewind on childhood. "At its core, Y2K style is epitomized by the influence of early internet and its invitation to play, and that uncharted territory sparked experimentation, often resulting in a mix of good, bad, and questionable taste," says Rebecca Goesling, director of design at the Goesling Group. This willingness to experiment without strict rules is what makes the Y2K aesthetic feel both nostalgic yet fresh today. "We see 2026 as the year when intuition, rather than algorithms, informs design, signaling a return to the aesthetics that shaped our youth," Goesling adds.

That spirit of playful rebellion is exactly why the trend is seeing a resurgence now. According to Goesling, most trends tend to follow a 20-year cycle, though she points out the Y2K revival is gaining particularly strong momentum. "Buying a home is daunting, designing it with AI is depressing, and keeping it in a state of zen-like perfection is futile, so it's far easier, and more joyful, to hang a Hannah Montana poster or drape a canopy over your bed," she says.

If you're similarly feeling nostalgic - but don't want to go all out - there are simple ways to give Y2K touches a grown-up twist. Goesling says hues such as muted green, vibrant pink, soft baby blue, citrus orange, and calming lavender can be lacquered on walls and lamps or worked into textiles like throw pillows, curtains, or even a bold accent chair for a playful splash of color. She also recommends leaning into funky patterns in rugs, bedding, and artwork to bring in that throwback flair without overwhelming the space.

In a world that leans into minimalism, muted tones, and quiet sanctuaries, the design of a Y2K teen bedroom feels like a permission slip to be louder, messier, and maybe even a little more chaotic. Whether it's an animal print wall, a stack of nostalgic trinkets, or an entire room drenched in glitter and gloss, the Y2K revival isn't about curating a perfect space - it's about creating one that feels fun again. "I can appreciate the clean girl aesthetic, but it's just not my vibe," Kara says. "I'm a Y2K addict."

The Best Furniture For People With Allergies, From an Editor Allergic to Everything

Jessica Andrews — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 07:55:02 -0800

Furniture shopping is a major undertaking that needs a considered approach, whether you're looking for a sectional sofa, outdoor furniture, lounge chairs, or couches for a home with pets. But shopping for furniture for allergies is a whole different ball game. I'm allergic to pet dander, pollen, and dust mites, and while I'm currently working to alleviate symptoms through immunotherapy, in the meantime, I am determined to get furniture that will make my day-to-day life easier.

Fortunately, after 15 years as an editor, I've had the chance to test the best furniture - from air purifiers to couches - and I have a good idea of what will work best for allergies.

From the Coway Airmega 400 air purifier to the LG Style smart steam closet, these products will clean everything from the air to your clothing in order to relieve allergy symptoms and alleviate suffering. And they're all available at places like Amazon, Walmart, and Nordstrom, and from furniture brands you love like Albany Park and Saatva.

Haley Lyndes — Fri, 13 Feb 2026 13:30:02 -0800

Furniture shopping can be a daunting task for even the most seasoned home designers, especially if you're looking to purchase a new sofa or armchair.

Albany Park is one of many such brands - and with a reputation for making the "internet's comfiest sofa," it's not hard to see why.

Margot Robbie’s "Wuthering Heights" Home Is Basically a Gothic Fairy Tale IRL

Haley Lyndes — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 09:30:02 -0800

The love story we've all been waiting for (and probably one we could all brush up on) is the 2026 adaptation of "Wuthering Heights," making its way to theaters on February 13. The film, based on Emily Brontë's 1847 novel, stars Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, and is written and directed by Emerald Fennell of "Saltburn" fame. Needless to say, we can expect something mystical, romantic, and visually striking - which is exactly what the latest Architectural Digest tour of the set delivers.

Production designer Suzie Davies and Margot Robbie took AD inside the set of Thrushcross Grange, Earnshaw's home in "Wuthering Heights," and it's every bit as magical as you'd expect. The film's $80 million budget allowed Davies to transform soundstages into lush, mystical gardens and fully realize Fennell's fresh vision. Rather than strictly adhering to historical realism, the film leans into gothic romance and expressive, imaginative touches. It's less a literal recreation of the period and more of an interpretation shaped by Fennell's imagination - an approach that's on full display throughout the tour of Earnshaw's home.

If you've loved the previews and sneak peeks released so far, you'll be just as taken with the set itself and the shoppable pieces we've found to match.

Is the Viral Litter-Bot Worth the Hype? My Cats Think So

Sarah Wasilak — Wed, 28 Jan 2026 09:44:02 -0800

This vs. That features a comparative analysis of two trending products, offering a technical review of both items and cutting through internet discourse with authority. For this installment, we compared the viral Litter-Robot 4 against a bestselling self-cleaning Meowant litter box from Amazon. Read the full review below.

Believe it or not, the first automatic litter box was patented in 1991, prompting a long history of research to imagine and design the best possible model. And naturally, as soon as the idea of a scoop-free lifestyle hit the internet, cat moms like me advanced a self-cleaning litter box to the top of our wish lists. The Litter-Robot, engineered by Brad Baxter in 1999 and owned by Whisker, sparked a fair amount of innovation from other brands as well, such as Amazon's top-selling Meowant, making for viral products that are now touted as must haves on the likes of TikTok and Instagram.

I got my hands on the Litter-Robot 4 ($699), an advancement on the Litter-Robot 3 Connect, which is highly rated thanks to its quiet operating system, advanced sifting technology, and spacious design. In short, I'd always imagined it like a high-end designer bag for my cats, Trish and Kit - they could easily go without it, but upgrading would be such an incredible luxury. So of course there's a high price point to match. The Litter-Robot 4 is pricey, and that's without the accessories such as the LitterTrap mat or carpet tray - plus, you can customize the circular bezel in gorgeous colorways such as mint, marble, and gray. Naturally, I understand the holdup many cat parents have in making such a big purchase, when scooping litter is not the most gruesome, time-consuming task in the world.

But there are also alternative models on the market advertised to be just as revolutionary at a fraction of the price. The question is: do they measure up? In an effort to find a similar-quality gadget that qualifies as small-apartment furniture (since I recently moved into a new space that's lacking in square footage), I researched the dimensions, ratings, and reviews of Amazon's bestselling self-cleaning cat litter boxes and landed on the Meowant Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box ($330), which qualifies for Prime's fast, free shipping.

Ahead, I provide insight into which litter box is right for you and your space, highlighting key differences between the models as well as the standout features you may want to take into consideration. One thing's for sure - regardless of which brand you choose, upgrading to a self-cleaning litter box is life-changing in that it eliminates the daily task of scooping and makes the act of cleaning up after your cats a weekly to-do.

Differences Between the Litter-Robot 4 and the Meowant Litter Box

Image Source: PS Photography / Sarah Wasilak

The most glaringly obvious difference between the Litter-Robot 4 and the Meowant litter box is the size. The footprint of the Litter-Robot 4 is 22" by 27", and it stands at 30" and weighs 24 pounds, whereas Meowant's design is 21" by 21", stands at 22", and weighs 21 pounds. Maybe it's because I'd already unpackaged the Litter-Robot when the Meowant box arrived, but I was decidedly more taken aback by the sheer existence of the Litter-Robot in the corner of my small apartment. It really does look and feel like a spaceship for your cats - a gateway through which they may crossover into another world. This could also be because the opening to the bathroom (or should I say portal?) is more visible.

It really does look and feel like a spaceship for your cats - a gateway through which they may crossover into another world.

You can watch every bit of the action as the Litter-Robot 4 operates through its cycle, sifting through the clean litter to expose the clumps subsequently discarded into the waste bin, then leveling back out. This was particularly exciting for my curious cat, Kit, who managed to regularly stop the Litter-Robot 4 in its rotation as it sensed her nearby (this is also a safety feature of the Meowant box - more on that to follow). Being that the Litter-Robot 4 is a larger, more "open" device, my partner and I also both felt it was louder than the Meowant.

Unsurprisingly, Kit also happens to be a more energetic litter box user than most cats I've come across (which is many), shoveling, spraying, and tracking the particles in a chaotic fashion each time she uses the bathroom. This led to a much bigger mess with the Litter-Robot 4 given its wider entryway, though both brands do stock a trap mat with a heavy-duty top mesh layer ($48 on the Litter-Robot, and included with the Meowant) and Litter-Robot has since rolled out a Shield that is compatible with this model.

Another huge factor to consider? The Litter-Robot 4 waste bin is an under compartment that pulls out like a drawer, doubling as a step for the cats to climb into the device (which has a higher entry point, Meowant's entrance height is only 4.8 inches), whereas the Meowant litter box trash is stowed on the top right-hand side of the drum. You have to squeeze the snap lock to lift the cover upward, then proceed to remove the garbage bag from the slim chamber that's built in vertically.

I definitely found the cleaning process to be tidier with the Litter-Robot 4, as the plastic bag engulfs the entire base where the litter is discarded, whereas there are spaces surrounding the waste compartment in the Meowant design where damp or excess litter tends to stick during the process. Of course, this can be wiped away with a wet paper towel every three to five days when it's time to empty out the bin. The Meowant litter box, which comes with a gel deodorizer that you need to install (plus two replacements), releases a bit more odor than the Litter-Robot 4, which has a built-in OdorTrap system with a carbon filter. However, it's important to note that both products reduce or eliminate odors within the household drastically, and the stench is really only noticeable when the trap doors are open.

What's Worth Noting About the Litter-Robot 4 and the Meowant Litter Box

Both self-cleaning litter boxes come with unbeatable WiFi-enabled technology that can be controlled through an app. Both systems allow you to track or schedule cleaning cycles, keep tabs on the weight of your cat(s), apply a child lock, set up "do not disturb" mode, and more. You can also manually trigger some of these functions on the button panels.

If you follow the manuals step-by-step, both litter boxes are extremely easy to set up, taking about 20 minutes at most. The contraptions come with automatic sensors that trigger them to halt their cycles when a cat is nearby, for safety purposes. They're extremely efficient in that they operate mere minutes after your cat has gone to the bathroom, which thereby prevents lingering odors in your space. When it comes time to wipe down the structure, which is recommended every month or so, you can use a sanitary wipe on the interior surface (made of rubber in the Litter-Robot 4 and plastic in the Meowant litter box).

From a visual perspective, both self-cleaning litter boxes are a bit sleeker in appearance than your standard scooping box, but they by no means double as decor, and it's important to note that it's harder to hide a self-cleaning operating system in your home, whereas compact boxes can often be slid beside a toilet or even tucked away into shelving or a cabinet. If the appearance of a litter box is important to you, this is a significant consideration that should be taken into account before splurging on such a big purchase.

Both litter boxes are compatible with any type of clumping litter. Trish and Kit were ready and willing to use both models, proceeding to enter without any issues when it was time to go to the bathroom.

Who Are the Litter-Robot 4 and Meowant Litter Boxes Best For?

Self-cleaning litter boxes are best for busy cat parents who may not always have time to scoop daily and want to track their pet's weight and bathroom routine. It's very important to note that cat parents are oftentimes encouraged to monitor the consistency and quality of their cat's stool, especially if the pet may be sick, so in this case, scooping litter could be best. Of course, you should ask your veterinarian for advice.

Because of the dimensions of the products, I would also recommend the self-cleaning litter boxes for those who live in a larger space and have extra room to fit the devices comfortably.

Additional Details:

The Litter-Robot 4 is offered in a total of eight different bezel colors, whereas the Meowant litter box comes with a yellow or gray base.
The Litter-Robot 4 and the Meowant litter box both come with a one-year warranty.
There is no weight limit on the Litter-Robot 4, whereas the Meowant litter box is recommended for cats 3.3 to 18 pounds.

Where Are the Litter-Robot 4 and Meowant Litter Boxes Available to Shop?

The Litter-Robot 4 is available to shop at Best Buy, Chewy, and litter-robot.com. The Meowant litter box is available to shop on Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, and meowant.com.

10 High-Fiber Snacks That'll Keep You Feeling Full For Longer

Courtney Leiva — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 06:00:03 -0800

Whether you're looking for a snack that fills you up, balances your blood sugar to make sure you don't crash in a couple of hours, or eases the stubborn constipation that's been dogging you - fiber's the name of the game. High-fiber snacks can help with all this and more, making them a seriously underrated staple in your diet. In fact, you should be paying just as much attention to fiber as you do to your protein intake, even though it's the macronutrient people tend to talk about less. With the National Institute of Health reporting that up to 95 percent of American adults and children aren't eating enough fiber, healthy high-fiber snacks are the answer to correcting the imbalance and feeling full for longer.

Fiber works by removing excess cholesterol and controlling blood sugar levels, says functional medicine clinical nutritionist Pooja Mahtani, PharmD, MS, CNS, LDN, IFMCP. "Fiber can also aid in hormone detoxification by helping to bind to excess estrogen and carry it out of the body," she adds. "Plus, it aids digestion by promoting regularity and preventing constipation, and it also helps you feel fuller longer."

You don't even need that much of it to get those benefits. Adults should aim for about 25 to 38 grams of fiber per day (or 14 grams for every 1,000 calories you eat), according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. That means a snack with just three grams of fiber per serving is considered a high-fiber snack and seriously contributes to your overall intake, Mahtani says. But even so, many Americans fall way short of this guideline.

While fiber supplements can help you fill in the gaps, eating more fiber-rich foods is relatively easy, and surprisingly satisfying. In general, fruits, vegetables, and grains are all great fiber-dense foods to add to your meals and snacks, according to the National Library of Medicine.

If you need some inspiration for your next high-fiber snack, look no further. We have plenty of ideas that not only taste good but help keep your body nourished.

Coway's Air Purifier Helps Me Conquer Allergies All Year Round

Jessica Andrews — Thu, 15 Jan 2026 14:45:02 -0800

Image Source: PS Photography / Jessica Andrews Every year, allergy season seemingly comes just as quick as it leaves. For me, it's two months of pure agony, and I'm only being slightly dramatic here. As someone who suffers from a tree pollen allergy along with asthma, it's hard to get through pollen season without a trip to the emergency room - let alone a steady stream of antihistamines and corticosteroids. I'm on a constant journey to make allergy season easier to manage, and the first step in my process is controlling my environment. For years, I didn't pay much attention to air purifiers because I felt they weren't strong enough to help someone who is extra sensitive to pollen. The Coway Airmega 400 True HEPA Air Purifier with Smart Technology ($649) thankfully proved me wrong.

I live in a townhouse surrounded by trees, and my bedroom has a door that faces the forest (an asset every time of year except during allergy season). I set this air purifier up in that room since the air quality was so poor - and I was amazed by how clean the air was after just one night of use. The air purifier claims to capture 99.999 percent of nano-sized particles down to 0.01 microns (most bacteria, mold, and allergens included) and I can say it's actually made a difference for me during allergy season and beyond. It's also pretty effective for any kind of air pollution, whether released from wildfires, factories, cars, or construction.

I noticed right away that my breathing isn't as labored and I feel less congested. It's also pretty convenient to operate: I can change the settings manually based on air quality or leave it in Auto mode to do the work for me. Overall, in terms of function and ease, this air purifier actually impressed me. Most importantly, it helped alleviate my symptoms during allergy season in a way I didn't think was possible. Keep reading for a review of the Coway Airmega 400 True HEPA Air Purifier with Smart Technology.

What I Like About the Coway Airmega 400 Air Purifier

Full disclosure: I have quite a few air purifiers (one in each of the five rooms in my place) and this is by far the most powerful and effective. Together, the 3-stage filtration system - including the combined Max2 filter (a Green True HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter) and the pre-filter - reduce 99.999 percent of 0.01-micron particles in the air, making pollen season actually bearable for me.

I also take full advantage of the purifier's smart technology. It features three useful modes: Auto Mode, where the fan changes speed as needed without having to be manually adjusted; Eco Mode, when the fan turns off to conserve energy but starts back up if air quality worsens; and Sleep Mode, when the fan rotates slowly once the room is dark and the air's clean.

What's more, the air purifier is stylish and chic with a white cover and wooden legs that complement the modern decor in my bedroom (it's also available in black). It's fairly quiet, only creating white noise when it's on the medium or high setting.

What's Worth Noting About the Coway Airmega 400 Air Purifier

The Coway Airmega 400 purifier is designed for large areas (up to 3,120 sq ft) so if you have a smaller space, you can opt for the Airmega 100 ($90, originally $130) for up to 810 sq ft of coverage.

Though the noise from the air purifier isn't a bother to me, it does create a sound when placed on higher settings, so if you want a device that's totally silent, either keep the Coway Airmega 400 on low mode or explore other options.

Who Is the Coway Airmega 400 Air Purifier Best For?

The Coway Airmega 400 air purifier is a splurge, but it's worth the investment for clean air, especially if you're battling an illness like I am, or perhaps you live in an area with high air pollution levels or have a home with pets or mold concerns.

15 Headboards and Bed Frames That Instantly Upgrade Your Bedroom

Anvita Reddy — Fri, 26 Dec 2025 11:10:01 -0800

A new bed frame or headboard can instantly change the look and feel of a bedroom, and upholstered styles are especially loved for adding warmth and comfort without sacrificing a modern aesthetic. Whether you're refreshing your entire space or simply upgrading one key piece, an upholstered bed can make a room feel more polished and inviting. To help you find the best upholstered bed frames and headboards, we tapped interior designer Devin Shaffer for expert insight on what actually matters when shopping.

"When shopping for components of upholstered beds (headboards, footboards, etc.), always make sure that they're compatible with your bed frame," Shaffer says. He also notes that headboard height matters-especially if you have a taller mattress or love layering pillows and throw blankets.
"Upholstered beds immediately volumize a bedroom and add a boutique-like visual effect," Shaffer says, adding that these frames come in a wide range of price points and can often be mixed and matched with footboards for a more custom look. Because fabric furnishings are more susceptible to wear and staining, he recommends keeping a quality upholstery cleaner on hand.

Ahead, we've rounded up the best upholstered bed frames and headboards on the market, including options with plush textures, built-in storage, and space-saving designs. From wingback styles to low-profile platforms, these picks - many tested and loved by Popsugar editors - make it easy to find a frame that works for your space.

TikTok Can't Get Enough of This $18 Amazon Blanket - and Neither Can I

Kyley Warren — Tue, 23 Dec 2025 07:55:02 -0800

While I'm generally pretty restrained when it comes to shopping, even I can't resist the temptation of a cozy splurge. For winter, I can't help but give into all of my impulses - stocking up on chunky sweaters, drinking my weight in chamomile tea, and adorning my home with cozy accents. In the case of my latest buy, I caved on what is perhaps Amazon's coziest bestseller to date: the Bedsure Throw Blanket ($19).

From the first moment I laid eyes on this blanket, I knew that I needed it in my home; with a 4.5 rating and nearly 17,500 rave reviews on Amazon's site, I'm apparently far from alone in my adoration of the product. And really, what's not to like about it? The fluffy fleece material! The bubbly ribbed detailing! The soothing color options! This throw blanket has all the makings of a self-care essential that's destined to go viral on TikTok at any given moment. Ahead of its presumed virality, I decided to test the home accessory for myself - analyzing its soft composition, weight, and overall plushness - to see if it's truly worth the hype.

What I Like About This Bedsure Blanket

For context: I have used this blanket every day since it arrived in the mail; it's draped across my bed when I sleep at night, on my couch when I'm lounging around in the evenings, and even styled over my office chair while I'm working from my desk. It's become as much a staple of my everyday life as a good moisturizer or a cup of coffee, so it's fair to say there's very little I don't like about it.

This throw blanket epitomizes cozy vibes: It's endlessly soft and covered in a fleece material that's as lavish at it is long-lasting. I love that it comes in a variety of size and color options, which made it easy to shop out the best version for my home. (I personally bought the blanket in the queen size with an off-white coloring, which blends beautifully into my home's color scheme and offers material to cover the entirety of my full-size bed.) Unlike traditional blankets, this product also has a striped design that creates a sensorial-feeling texture - and somehow adds even more appeal to its fluffy, cozy composition.

More than anything, I appreciate the affordability of this Amazon blanket. As someone who's constantly chasing feelings of coziness and comfort, I've dished out a lot of money on self-care products over the years - on everything from scented candles to name-brand blankets. This fleece blanket feels just as cozy - if not moreso - than other soft blankets I've purchased over the years, and it's available at a fraction of the cost. Not only will I be buying more versions of this Bedsure blanket for myself (you can never have too many blankets, right?), but you can bet I'll also be gifting it to loved ones, too.

What's Worth Noting About This Bedsure Blanket

I'll admit: The product photos had me convinced that this blanket was much thicker and heavier than it actually is. The pictures on Amazon's site make the throw look much more textured with a bubble-like design that gives it a unique feel. The reality is that it's structured more like a classic throw blanket with a subtle, ribbed detailing that's unique but far from as striking as the product images depict. This isn't necessarily a bad thing; I'm still obsessed with the coziness of the blanket, and actually appreciate that it's breathable enough to be used year-round, as opposed to a denser product I might just reserve for fall or winter use. But if you're in the market for a thick, marshmallow blanket, I'd recommend shopping out another option.

Who Is This Bedsure Blanket Best For?

Anyone who loves to indulge in a cozy buy will genuinely adore this blanket. Its soft and plushie design feels elevated, despite costing less than $20; I'd even argue that it rivals (or at least matches) the quality of throw blankets from other luxury brands. Whether you're looking for a stylish blanket to toss over the couch or want a large blanket to wrap yourself in on a lazy day, this Amazon blanket has enough variety to work for everyone's needs. Plus, it doubles as the perfect self-care gift to give for holidays, birthdays, and more.

Additional Details

This Bedsure throw blanket comes in eight sizes, including: throw, twin, full, queen, California king, and regular king, among others.
It's available in 29 colorways and off-white was my shade of choice.
The decor is crafted from a fluffy fleece and polyester material that's uniquely soft.
Per the brand, to ensure the blanket's quality over time, it's recommended that users machine wash the accessory regularly - no bleach.

Where Can I Buy This Bedsure Blanket?

This throw blanket is available to shop at Amazon and Bedsure.

Let's Settle the Debate: Who Pays For the Birthday Dinner?

Maressa Brown — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 10:55:00 -0800

Think fast: you're invited to a birthday dinner - do you expect to pay for your own meal? The question of who should foot the bill when a birthday's on the table has never had a clear answer - though social media has lots of opinions.

TikToker Tinx, for one, believes that if the guest of honor chooses the restaurant where they'll be celebrating, they should expect to cover the tab for their invitees. "If I invite a group of people somewhere to celebrate me, that's my treat because I organized it and I'm asking them to come," the podcast host and content creator said in a video last year. Others vehemently disagreed, arguing that the person celebrating their big day should never have to break out their wallet, even for their own meal.

Expert etiquette Thomas P. Farley believes the debate around this issue stems from the fact that there are many different ways of celebrating a birthday, "each with its own protocol when it comes to who picks up the tab," he says.

What are these different scenarios - and how can you have a fun celebration without worrying about hurting your guests' feelings (or busting their wallets)? Let's dig in.

Experts Featured in This Article

Thomas P. Farley, also known as Mister Manners, is an etiquette expert and keynote speaker.

Daniel Post Senning is the great-great grandson of Emily Post and a co-author of "Emily Post's Etiquette."

Scenario 1: Your Birthday, Your Bill

Elena Murzello, a 43-year-old from Vancouver, Canada, swears by Tinx's rule: if you're the one doing the planning and inviting, you should cover the costs. For celebratory events, she's planned intimate dinners and large fetes. For her largest bash, her 30th birthday party, she rented out the Vancouver Aquarium, hired a DJ, and served her 80 guests dessert.

Murzello says paying for her own celebrations is so important to her because she's aware of the way additional costs can add up when someone RSVPs "yes" to an event. "Ubers can be pricey, as well as a babysitter. This year, I had a couple extend their stay in the city to attend, so they paid for another night at a hotel. If the guest wants to bring me a gift - which is never expected - that can add up, too," she says. "I want everyone to enjoy the time spent and not have to worry that their attendance is going to break the bank."

Key to alleviating her guests' stress is being up-front about what the party will entail and which costs the guests, should they attend, would be responsible for. "I add on the invite what I am covering - for example: dumplings are on me, drinks are on you," says Murzello, who sends out these details in a message to her guests a week before the event.

According to etiquette experts, Murzello's approach is almost always the right one. "If I'm hosting you for dinner at my house, I don't ask you to pay for groceries," says etiquette expert Daniel Post Senning. "If I've issued a specific invitation to a specific thing, I would expect to pick up the bill."

Farley agrees: if you are choosing the venue and handling all of the arrangements, "it is far more typical - and appropriate - for the birthday person to pick up the tab for the occasion," he says. To make it clear to your guests that this will be the case, he suggests including language on the invitation along the lines of: "Please come as my guest for a celebration of my birthday, to be held at [a specific] location."

La Carmina, a 30-something travel host and blogger, says she's super appreciative when expectations around guest costs are made transparent from the outset. "My friends have always been upfront about what is covered or not, so I'm not surprised by any unexpected costs," she says. "For example, it's made clear that I should pay for anything I order at a restaurant, or if the party is catered and I should simply come."

"If anything is vague, I don't hesitate to ask."

For example, for an upcoming party, her friend said they would order food for the guests but asked everyone to bring their own beverage and a snack. They then added what they were bringing to a shared spreadsheet to avoid duplicates. "If anything is vague, I don't hesitate to ask," says La Carmina.

Scenario 2: You're the Guest of Honor, Not the Host

In some friend groups, splitting the bill and covering the guest of honor is a given. Bella Graham, a 30-something from Beverly Hills, CA, says that when attending a single female friend's birthday dinner, she and her girlfriends will always cover their own dinners and jointly split the birthday girl's bill. "I would never let a woman friend pay for her own B-day dinner," she says.

Graham says she's never paid for her own birthday dinner, either. "It's not anything that I explicitly request, but because of the norms and shared expectations amongst my friend group, it always works out that way," she says. "Either my girlfriends will jointly split my bill, or my date will cover my bill."

She does, however, bring "little gifts" to distribute to her friends at her own birthday celebrations. "I've become known for giving out long-stemmed roses and handmade thank-you cards," says Graham. "I'll also usually bring a cake and a bottle of my favorite champagne and just pay the corkage fee. The most rewarding aspect of a birthday is having those that I love and respect genuinely show up for me."

Graham acknowledges that this "what goes around, comes around" approach only works because it's understood and accepted by her closest friends - and drama has definitely occurred during birthday dinners thrown by people outside of her main social circle. "When you're dining with people that you don't know, it's hard to control the outcome," she says. "I was invited to a birthday dinner once where guests were expected to split the bill and cover the birthday girl's dinner - which I was fine with - but an argument broke out when a couple of guests objected."

Senning concedes that, sometimes, it's just not in the budget for you to cover the bill for yourself and everyone you want to celebrate with, even if you might want to. To avoid an awkward squabble when the bill arrives like the one Graham experienced, it's smart to establish those expectations in advance. "Under no circumstances should the birthday person spring a surprise bill on their friends," says Farley.

Instead, Farley suggests you include the cost of the event when you extend the invite to your friends in order to make clear that attendance comes with a price tag. For instance, you could say: "Would anyone be interested in going skydiving next month? It's my birthday, and I think it would be a fun way to mark the milestone. Tickets are $300 each. I know it's a bit steep, but if you are game to join, it would be great to experience it with as many of you as possible."

Or, Senning suggests taking a more collaborative approach to planning your celebration. You might send out a group text or email saying: "I'd love to organize a way for us all to get together - anybody have ideas? Was thinking about such and such. What do people think about that?" When you allow the planning process to be a discussion, your guests are given the opportunity to share any restrictions around budget, location, or timing they might have.

Check, Please

As a host or a guest, knowing exactly how to navigate birthday dinner bill etiquette can be stressful. That's why, ultimately, everyone would do well to communicate and be as explicit as possible about the expectations. "Awkward as these situations can be, they can usually be clarified - and upset feelings avoided - with good pre-party communication and planning," says Farley.

If you feel in the dark about whether or not you'll be expected to chip in, Senning suggests making a "very traditional etiquette" move: asking outright when you RSVP. "Those conversations can feel difficult because we have reasonable expectations of privacy around things like finances and family," says Senning. "But it's also true that having those discussions in an open, candid, honest, forthright manner is important . . . If you would love to go, but you're not sure if you can [afford to], it's OK to say that."

And remember, if you are an invitee, it's up to you whether or not you decide to attend, says Farley. "No guest should go into debt because pride disallows them from admitting a chosen venue is too expensive for them to afford," he says.

Ultimately, it's important to remember what a birthday dinner really is all about. "It's a party - it should be fun," says Murzello. "Do not feel pressure to cover something or overextend your budget because you are worried how it will look for one day or night. It's not worth the stress."

The Meal Kit That Turns Home Cooking into a Breeze

Balim Tezel — Tue, 16 Dec 2025 14:45:02 -0800

I've tried a few meal kits before, but HelloFresh's latest promotion genuinely caught my attention. The deal, which can be accessed using the code VMZWILLING, offers new users a free Zwilling Four Star Chef's Knife ($145) plus 10 free meals with the third delivery, and I was eager to see how it compared to other services.

For this delivery, I let HelloFresh ($11 per meal) choose the meals for me. While the offer is for 10 free meals, they're spread across multiple boxes depending on your plan size, and my first three were enough for me to understand what I was working with. So far, I've tried two of the meals: Sweet Heat Steak and Shishito Pepper Rice Bowl and Miso Curry Ramen. Ahead, I'm breaking down everything you need to know about the HelloFresh meal service so you can decide if it's worth trying.

What I Like About HelloFresh

Everything arrived neatly packed on ice, with each meal in its own bag containing all the ingredients - making the cooking process feel organized and approachable from the start. The recipes serve either two or four people. I found it easiest to cook everything at once, but because each ingredient is portioned, it's just as simple to split meals or save some for later. I was impressed by the quality and quantity of the ingredients, especially the fresh vegetables and protein. We even had leftovers that I've been enjoying throughout the week.

What stood out most was how easy everything was to make. The meals feel chef-inspired and elevated, yet the recipe cards walk you through each step. They estimate 20 minutes of cooking time, though for me it took 30–35 minutes, but I wasn't rushing. The process felt enjoyable, and the meals were perfect to share with a friend, roommate, or significant other over a glass of wine.

I also appreciate the flexibility. I'm not a big meat eater, so I like being able to separate ingredients and customize meals. I've even stretched some ingredients into extra meals - a bonus that made the kit feel even more valuable.

Finally, the Zwilling Four Star Chef's Knife is a fantastic addition as an added bonus. A good knife is hard to find, so this collaboration adds real value beyond just the meals.

What to Consider Before Trying HelloFresh

I will admit, the steak in my rice bowl and the ramen were good, though not exactly my preferred style. These little snafus are a reminder that if you want complete control over your meal - including cooking time and style - the service may not be right for you.

Who Is HelloFresh Best For?

HelloFresh is an excellent option for nights when you want to stay in without ordering takeout or settling for something basic. It removes the mental load of planning, searching for recipes, and shopping for ingredients. Everything arrives ready to go, making it easy to prepare high-quality meals without the hassle. If that sounds up your alley, the service is definitely right for you.

Popsugar’s 2025 Feel-Good Awards: Home Winners

Haley Lyndes — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 05:00:00 -0800

I've been a home editor for seven years now, which means I've tested enough pillows, candles, and plush throws to qualify for some kind of unofficial PhD in cozy. In 2025 alone, Popsugar editors tried more than 2,100 new launches, and that's me being conservative. Still, testing products for an awards program like Popsugar's 2025 Feel-Good Awards put my skills - and my deeply held belief that feng shui matters - to the ultimate challenge.

Editors across our five core categories - beauty, health, fitness, sex, and home - sifted through thousands of submissions to find the most joy-sparking, dopamine-boosting products of the year. Then came the marathon phase: testing every single item to make sure we're only recommending things that genuinely make life better.

For home, that meant fluffing every pillow, lounging on every sofa, sniffing (and burning) every candle, and evaluating every gadget that claimed to "change your life." We were hunting for the items that made us sigh happily, linger a little longer, and immediately text a friend: "You need this." Ahead, five items that did exactly that.

3 Editors on Why the Beast Mini Blender Is the Influencer-Approved Gift You Need

Angela Elias — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 15:05:02 -0800

If you're looking for a wellness gift that's versatile, compact, and cost-effective, you can't go wrong with the Beast Mini Blender ($89, originally $99). It captures the ease of a NutriBullet Original but packs more power, scores major points for aesthetics, and won't hurt your wallet or hog counter space like a Vitamix blender would. The blender has fans ranging from home influencers to fitness icons like Ally Love, all of whom rave about it. After three of our shopping editors received their own to test, they quickly understood the hype. To prove that good things come to those who procrastinate, Beast is running a seasonal sale that can save you up to 25 percent off.

About the Beast Mini Blender

The blender's base has a 600-watt motor that can create ridiculously creamy blends in less than two minutes. While it can pump out a silky smoothie, it can also be used to grind, chop, mince, whip, and juice, which adds to its versatility in the kitchen. The compact design is small enough to accommodate any countertop and packs easily. You can even drink your smoothie straight out of the blending container by switching out the blade piece with the included leak-proof drinking lid and straw.

If you've experienced other blenders that give off a burned plastic smell while blending, you'll appreciate that the Mini Blender has a patented thermal safety sensor that helps to keep it from overheating by monitoring the internal temperature of the ingredients. To keep it simple and easy to operate, there's just a single button. You can choose between a pulse-blend function or a hands-free blend, depending on how long you hold the button.

What's Included:

60-watt base
Blade assembly
640mL blending cup
Storage lid
Drinking lid
Straw cap
Two straws

7 Comfortable Sofas That'll Fit Right Into Your Small Space

Angela Elias — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 07:40:02 -0800

Every living room, regardless of its square footage, deserves a stylish and comfortable sofa. You'll want to start by measuring the area you're placing the couch into, which will dramatically narrow down your sofa search. Budget is also a key factor. Decide how much money you have to spend to help you zero in on choices you can afford.

When shopping for a sofa for a small space, you'll want to keep form and function in mind to make sure every inch of the sofa counts. In regard to the type of sofa that will be best for your household, consider who will be using it the most. Will your living room need to frequently double as a guest room? If so, consider investing in a quality sleeper sofa. Do you need a sofa that can hold up to kids and pets? Wipeable leather sofas, slipcovers that can be thrown in the washing machine, and performance fabrics that can easily be spot cleaned are all great options, though you might want to avoid leather if you have pets because it's easy to scratch.

Deciding on a form that will work best for your space can be a trickier task, because certain styles can make a small room feel even smaller. For expert guidance, we tapped interior designers Bradley Odom, Jennifer Hunter, Caitlin Wilson, and Roxy Owens, founder and creative director of Society Social, for their best tips on finding the perfect sofa for small spaces.

What to Look For When Buying a Small-Space Couch

When searching for a smaller-scale sofa, Odom looks for sofas with thinner arms. "Wide arms add to the larger footprint without adding to the usable seat space," he points out. Hunter looks for sleeker frames and prefers sofas with bench seating. "It tricks the eye into appearing longer by not breaking up the seats," she says. Owens loves the versatility of a sleeper sofa, whether you're placing it in a living room or office. Her tip? "Pay close attention to the dimensions of the sleeper mechanism when fully extended," she warns. Wilson avoids bulkier options and chooses tailored sofas that make a stylish statement. Her go-to silhouettes? "I love using a settee or loveseat in a space where a larger sofa won't work," she says.

Whether you're leaning toward a settee or sectional sofa, we've rounded up seven options that run the gamut of style and function. Find your match ahead.

16 Gifts For Soothing Anxiety, From Supplements to Weighted Blankets

Marisa Petrarca — Wed, 10 Dec 2025 13:55:02 -0800

The understatement of the century: there's zero shame in talking about mental health - whether that's with friends, a licensed therapist, or whoever feels safe. As someone who's basically yelled from the rooftops about having an anxiety disorder (hi, it's me) and has wrestled with it in different ways over the last 30 years, I've tried more "this might help" products than I can count. Medication, therapy, and the habits that keep me steady - exercise, sleep, not overdoing it on caffeine - are what actually move the needle. But I'd be lying if I said there weren't a handful of other things that bring me comfort, and based on the reviews I've read about them, I'm far from the only one.

So if you have someone in your life who deals with anxiety, is drowning in stress, or could simply use a little extra softness in their routine, this gift guide might have exactly what they need. I included picks at a bunch of price points and across categories - everything from a bath soak that quiets the mind to candles, weighted blankets, and other small luxuries that make the day feel a little easier.

Kendall Jenner's Mountain Home Is Going Viral - Get the Look From Wayfair and West Elm

Haley Lyndes — Wed, 10 Dec 2025 07:40:02 -0800

I nearly gagged when I saw Kendall Jenner's latest Architectural Digest house tour. Her "cozy mountain home" is ten times the size of my apartment and somehow still a million times more inviting. And no, the gagging wasn't from jealousy - though I'd happily live year-round in that sleek Airstream parked in her backyard - but from the sheer beauty of it all. The home is stunning. But really, what else would we expect? Jenner is a supermodel surrounded by some of the top artists and designers in the world; of course her home would soak up that influence in the best possible way.

Designed in collaboration with interior designer Heidi Caillier, the house is eccentric, warm, and deliciously "grandma chic." It's a little Nancy Meyers - vintage but not stuffy - and packed with pattern, texture, and character. It pushes far, far beyond the era of sterile minimalism and looks nothing like her sister Kim Kardashian's Calabasas palace. But that's the point: Jenner doesn't follow trends or siblings; she creates her own lane. The aesthetic Jenner is embracing is exactly what the design world needs right now, bringing warmth, charm, and soul back into interiors. Ad honestly, it's sparked a whole new taste palette for me. Great news for my friends who visit; very dangerous news for my bank account.

The best part? You don't need a supermodel salary or a mountain estate to get the look. With the right pieces, you can bring that same cozy magic into a home of any size - even a tiny apartment like mine. Ahead, take a peek inside Kendall Jenner's dreamy mountain home and shop pieces that capture the look.

I Want to Gift These Down-Alternative Pillows to Every Side Sleeper I Know

Angela Elias — Mon, 08 Dec 2025 08:30:02 -0800

Finding a comfortable mattress required loads of research (and some trial and error), which I was expecting. What I didn't see coming, was the rocky road to find good sleeping pillows. As a chronic side sleeper, I can get a crick in my neck from just looking at the wrong pillow. I've splurged on adjustable memory foam options and pinched pennies with an Amazon Basics set - a set I actually loved until they became super lumpy. As a shopping editor, I'm exposed to tons of brands and became curious about the Tuft & Needle Down Alternative Set ($120-$140) as a weightier, allergen-free solution to down, so I decided to give them a try.

What I Like About the Tuft & Needle Down Alternative Pillow Set

I've been sleeping on these pillows for the past few weeks, and I think I've found a new favorite. I would definitely buy these for another room in my house and they'd honestly make a great gift for the side-sleeper in your life. Unlike the pricier memory foam pillows I invested in, these cause zero neck pain. They have a fluffy, cloud-like consistency that works just as beautifully for side and back sleeping. They're light and airy but provide just enough cushion so that my head doesn't sink to the bottom - a phenomenon I like to refer to as the taco effect. Unlike actual down, I don't have to constantly fluff them to offset the flattening - they just bounce back to their original fullness after a night's sleep.

Another perk as a down-filling alternative is that they're safe for anyone with allergies. My 6-year-old is incredibly sensitive to dust mites and he visits my bed regularly for snuggle shifts. We can read stories and watch a movie in bed (our favorite weekend activity) without him getting congested. I also love that I can easily wash these, even if they take a couple of low, tumble dry cycles to fully dry (hot tip: throw in some clean tennis balls or wool dryer balls for added fluff).

What to Consider About the Tuft & Needle Down Alternative Pillow Set

A couple of things to note if you're considering placing an order: this set comes in both a standard size (two pillows are perfect for a queen) and king size. One set comes with two pillows, which also makes them a great deal IMO, considering the quality.

Another subtle difference I noticed from my Amazon Basics set is that the Tuft & Needle set's casing is slightly noisier. Not so much that it's distracting when I'm trying to drift off to sleep, but I noticed it while changing my pillow cases. The Tuft & Needle casing sort of reminds me of the dust mite and allergen cotton pillow covers that I purchased for my son's bed, only these are a little softer.

If you're still on the fence, Tuft & Needle offers a 100-night sleep trial, so you don't have much to lose!

This Editor-Approved Cookware Set from Made-In Is 30% Off for Black Friday

I might not own the Made-In CeramiClad 7-Piece Cookware Set ($580, originally $806), but I do own Made-In cookware, and I have to say it has lasted me a long time. My set isn't quite as pretty or as big as this one, but I've used my small but mighty three-piece set for years and can confidently say that "impressed" is an understatement. Right now, for Black Friday, the CeramiClad 7-Piece Set is 32 percent off and comes with a free Round Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven, making it the perfect time to snag a set for yourself.

Cookware is tricky - you really have to try both high- and low-end pieces to understand what you're missing out on, test all the specs, and use it for all kinds of cooking. After seven years as an editor, I can safely give Made-In a five-star rating. It's pricey, but absolutely worth it.

Image Source: www.madeincookware.com

Made in Italy with five-ply construction, which is a fancy way of saying it has multiple layers of metal to ensure food cooks evenly, and topped with a non-stick coating that makes cooking easy and cleanup a breeze, this set is very much worth it. I also love that it's compatible with all stovetops - gas, electric, and induction - so even if you move, you don't have to buy new cookware. Plus, it's oven safe up to 550 degrees and free from harmful chemicals, which isn't always the case with cheaper sets. While I'm personally eyeing this 7-piece set, the entire site is up to 30 percent off right now, so you really can't go wrong with any single piece, even just a fry pan.

I've Been Eyeing the Kova Sofa for Months - Cyber Monday's 40% Off Sale Sealed It

Haley Lyndes — Fri, 28 Nov 2025 07:30:01 -0800

I'm not saying you need to make a big purchase this Black Friday, but I am saying that if you've been putting one off, now's a pretty great time to consider it. Especially when it comes to furniture - we all know those prices can make a serious dent in your bank account. One brand our editors genuinely love is Albany Park; we've tested both the Lido Sofa and Barton Sofa (and honestly, there are more, I just can't keep count). The brand hits that sweet spot of being both affordable and excellent quality, with designs that live right in our wheelhouse - like the Kova Sofa and Ottoman ($3,006, originally $5,010) - which former shopping director Macy Cate Williams reviewed and genuinely loves.

"This couch feels like a cloud - each cushion is filled with a feather-fiber blend that is so soft and fluffy. I also appreciate that the cushions are reversible, so if I spill something that stains badly (hello, red wine), I can just flip over a cushion."

Not only is this sofa $2,000 off (yes, you read that correctly), but the entire site is 35 percent off for Black Friday, and you get free white-glove delivery. The Kova is stylish and comfortable, available in a range of fabrics (Sunbrella, performance, linen, velvet, chenille) and more than twenty color options - because no, I'm not counting all of them. You can even customize the cushion style (box or pillow). It's basically built for lounging and happens to look great while doing it. Couch-rotting score? A solid eight out of ten, easily.

As a Turkish Tea Lover, Here's My Take on Rishi's Turmeric Ginger Tea

Balim Tezel — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 15:45:02 -0800

I've been living in the States for 10 years now. I first came here for college, then moved to New York, so at this point I'm basically a New Yorker. And I'm sure you've heard that we New Yorkers love an early-morning, late-night routine . . . which conveniently allows us to drink more than a couple cups of coffee a day.

I might be a New Yorker now, but I'm also Turkish. Growing up in Turkey, tea was non-negotiable - it was just part of life. But after adapting to the American lifestyle, I'm ashamed to say I went from drinking several cups of tea a day to having it once in a blue moon. And honestly, the tea here just doesn't compare to the tea back home (and I'm not even talking about the ritual, everyone drinking tea together like it's water, which adds so much to the experience). So I slowly just let it go.

That's why when Rishi Tea reached out with their tea offerings, I was genuinely excited to hopefully get my groove back and try a new tea company. I immediately checked their website, which has a ton of options from Japanese matcha (another favorite of mine, as long as it's high quality and not chalky) to blends with turmeric and ginger, cinnamon plum, Earl Grey lavender, and even vanilla mint chai, which I haven't seen much before. I wanted to try everything. The website is visually pleasing, and seeing the loose tea leaves honestly just made me want to start brewing right away.

Once I got the package that's filled to the brim with Turmeric Ginger ($36), it took me maybe 3 to 5 minutes to make my first cup, I was that excited. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint. They come individually packaged, which I love because it helps preserve the aroma and prevents the tea from going stale. Plus, it just feels more hygienic.

The awesome, centering energy of golden turmeric root is enhanced by strengthening licorice root and zesty ginger in this Ayurveda-inspired blend.

The tea is uncaffeinated and super easy to prepare. The instructions are printed on each sachet, but if you get the loose-leaf version, you basically use 1.5 tablespoons in 12 oz of hot water (around 200°F) and steep for 5 minutes. If you want an extra soothing cup, you can steep it stronger and longer, up to 10 minutes. They also offer a Simple Brew Loose Leaf Teapot ($29) and Loose Leaf Tea Filters ($9) to make things easier. Or you can just do what I do and stick with the pre-packaged sachets. The good thing is Rishi offers everything - sachets, loose leaf, iced teas, concentrates, powders, you name it.

What I Like About Rishi's Turmeric Ginger Tea

Image Source: PS Photography / Balim Tezel

The moment I took a sip, I knew I was going to be hooked. I personally love ginger – I use it in meals, soups, green juices, anything. I think it's one of the best ingredients for supporting your health, and when you pair it with turmeric, there's no going back.

One thing I loved about this tea is that you can actually taste both ginger and turmeric strongly. The flavor is sharp and warming, and it feels like you're fighting a cold even before you have one. The tea is slightly spicy thanks to the golden turmeric and the citrusy, spicy ginger, truly a perfect match. Fragrant lemongrass and citrus peels add a lemon-drop sweetness that balances out the turmeric's pungency. You can taste the tradition behind the Ayurvedic blend.

As someone with a hectic schedule, who can't afford to get sick, is obsessed with natural herbal benefits, and constantly tries to keep her digestion calm (my stomach hurts all the time), this tea feels like it's about to become my best friend.

What's Worth Noting Before You Try It

I'm not ashamed to say I had two cups back-to-back while working, and I could feel my digestion waking up (if you know what I mean).

The only downside is that the tea is a bit more expensive than supermarket tea options. But honestly, the flavor strength, ingredient quality, and sourcing transparency make the price understandable if you're looking for something that feels like a treat and not just a random tea bag.

It's also caffeine-free, which might be a downside for some, but I actually love that I can drink it during the day or night without worrying about sleep.

Who Is Rishi's Turmeric Ginger Tea Best For?

Anyone who loves bold, spicy, herbal teas
People who enjoy ginger and turmeric specifically
Those who want a soothing, digestion-supporting drink
Anyone who prefers caffeine-free options
People who value high-quality, ethically sourced ingredients
Anyone exploring Ayurvedic or natural remedies

Additional Details:

Key ingredient origins: Turmeric and ginger originate from Southeast Asia; licorice root comes from the Mediterranean and Asia (including Turkey, which made me feel closer to home); lemongrass is native to Southeast Asia, India, and Africa.
Preparation: 1.5 tbsp loose leaf in 12 oz hot water at ~200°F for 5 minutes, or up to 10 minutes for a stronger cup.
Packaging: Available in individually packaged sachets, loose leaf tins, powders, concentrates, and more.

Where Can You Buy This Tea?

You can purchase it directly from Rishi Tea's website or on Amazon which has their full selection - from sachets and loose leaf to matcha, concentrated teas, and unique blends.
