COHOES, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- On Tuesday morning, local officials will join business owner Glory-Anne Jones for the opening of her tea business; Chocolate is Self-Care. The new storefront at 159 Remsen Street will be home to a team room, which doubles as a production facility during the day.
“Tea is a warming of the soul, a time to stop and take stock and be warmed as the tea passes your heart,” said Jones. Jones' flagship tea blend is a proprietary chocolate tea, made in part with hulls of cacao beans. In addition to chocolate teas, Jones offers an Ayurvedic blend based on traditional Indian medicine.
