There are many U.S. tea shops and purveyors that sell quality teas online, but we hunted specifically for online tea shops with a selection of teaware or tea foods, for one-stop shopping to ship a tea party to a friend or loved one (or yourself). What we found is a full list of coast-to-coast local businesses, many of whom are offering free shipping now. Also, remember to check your local tearoom, who may be offering takeout or delivery afternoon tea boxes.
