The herbal tea lollipops will be delivered in the gift bags the morning after the Oscars telecast to the nominees in five major categories, which include best actor, best supporting actor, best actress, best supporting actress and best director. The telecast host will also be receiving a bag. The 87th Academy Awards Ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, will air live on ABC on February 22, starting at 7pm E.T./4pm P.T., at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles.
Since 1929, the most recognized statuette in the world has stood on mantels of the greatest artists of the silver screen. It's gold, shiny and everyone wants one. This year, Oscar nominees who don't take home the coveted award will still be able to take home a little piece of gold, thanks to Dosha Pops' exclusively gilded Ayurvedic herbal tea lollipops, made especially for inclusion in the nominee gift bags. The special-edition candies serve as a wonderful way of thanking those amazing artists who have given us countless hours of entertainment.
Dosha Pops Founder, Peggy Andrews, states, "Just like the original flavors, we created six new flavors using herbal teas and spices that are steeped in the Ayurvedic tradition, and included the use of gold only for the Oscars®." Andrews adds, "Using real gold as an ingredient isn't something new – it's been used in the Ayurvedic system for centuries."
Andrews' herbal tea lollipops have been a friendly way to introduce Ayurveda, the 5,000 year old science of life and sister science of yoga, to the Western world. Dosha Pops help people become more aware of their environment, body, mind, and spirit by helping them discover what their doshas are through an online test, and by suggesting which herbal tea- and spice-blended lollipops might help support balance in their lives. Considered the oldest medical science in the world, Ayurveda is a form of holistic healing with belief that each person has a unique pattern of Ayurvedic energies, called Doshas.
Andrews says, "I'm thrilled that Dosha Pops is included in the Oscar Nominees gift bags for the second time. This time the nominees will be the first to taste our new flavors, which will be presented in a special, custom-designed box." The new flavors won't be available to the public until later this year.
