Mrs Doyles Teas

In 2012, a group of Dublin housemates were inspired by “tea-pusher” Mrs. Doyle, the housekeeper on the classic Irish comedy “Father Ted,” to create Mrs. Doyle’s Teas. “Sure, and didn’t our Lord himself on the cross pause for a cup of tea before giving himself up for the world?” Mrs. Doyle would say on the TV show, giving the title priest his own pause. The tea line Mrs. Doyle's Teas would go on to produce include  “Decent Irish Breakfast” to “Chill Out Peppermint” to best-selling “Hangover” and “Happy” varieties.

The friends launched Mrs. Doyle’s Teas at Ireland’s Electric Picnic concerts as a charity fundraiser. They continue to sell thousands of cups, including a hangover variety and some that are infused with rum, at festivals with entertaining twists. 

Mrs. Doyle's Irish Cream Liqueur has gone on to win a Gold Medal for Best Irish Cream from The Irish Whiskey Association in 2015 & 2016
