5. Shuffle the Premium Order cards into ONE deck. Place the deck beneath the second row of order cards.

7. Place the coins and Favor Tokens in easy reach of all players. This is the reserve.

First Player

1. Randomly determine the first player. (A randomizer app, Rock Paper Scissors, or number guessing are some examples)
2. Distribute the following resources in turn order:

Player	1	2	3	4	5	6
Money	3	2	2	1	1	0
Ingredient	1	2	2	3	3	4

NOTE: Players choose their Ingredient cards.

Your Tea Shop

The space in front of each player represents their Shop. Everything a player aquires throughout the game is placed in this space.

INGREDIENT CARDS are placed in your shop FACE UP after you source them. You need Ingredient cards to fulfill orders. Ingredient cards have the following features:

1. Ingredient Type
2. Ingredient Name
3. Rarity
4. Fun Fact!

ORDER CARDS are placed in your shop FACE UP when you score them for Prestige or discarded if you sell them for money.

1. Name of Tea
2. Ingredient List
3. Order Payouts

MONEY and FAVOR TOKENS are always visible to all players.

On Your Turn

Your turn consists of TWO phases: "Sourcing" and "Fulfillment."

Sourcing

During Sourcing, you may take cards from one of the four Ingredient decks. The number of cards you draw is determined by your Budget. Set your Budget based on the following options:

• 0 money - Take ONE card from the top of any ingredient deck.
• 3 money - Take THREE cards from the top of any ingredient deck.
• 5 money - Take FOUR cards from the top of any ingredient deck.

NOTE: You MUST commit your budget BEFORE you begin taking cards. When you decide on your budget, return the required amount of money from your inventory to the bank. When you are done taking cards, you may proceed to the next phase.

ADVERTISING: You may PASS on Sourcing ingredients to opt for Advertising. If you do, take 2 money from the bank, then discard any ONE order card from the market.

Fulfillment

You may fill any amount of orders from the marketplace as long as you have the ingredients to fill them. To fill an order, you can do either of the following options:

SOLO: Claim an Order from the market and discard all of the required ingredients from your hand. Place them face down into their respective discard piles. You may then collect the benefits of that order.

CO-OP: If you do not wish to use all of your own ingredients, you may ask other players for specific ingredients to help fill an order. You do not have to mention which order you are filling, but you MUST provide at least one ingredient for the order.

ALL players discard the required ingredients into the discard piles, but the Active Player is the only one that is allowed to collect the reward from that order. The assisting players will claim ONE Favor Token for their efforts. (see next page for more info)

FAVOR TOKENS can be used as any single ingredient on a future order. Unused tokens also count as 1 Prestige during Final Scoring. There is no limit to the number of Favor Tokens a player can hold. HOWEVER, there are only twelve in the game.

When an order is filled, there are two possible payouts at the bottom of the card:

• SELL: You may discard the order immediately to take the money value printed on the left of the card and add it to your inventory. You will need money to source ingredients. Excess money at the end of the game is converted to Prestige.
• DISPLAY: You may decide to keep a card and place it on display in your shop. This will earn you the Prestige value on the right of the card.

At the end of the game, the Player with the most Prestige is the winner!

When you remove an order card, immediately replace the card with one from the same type of order deck (Standard or Premium). When you are done filling orders, pass the Active Player token to your LEFT to end your turn.

EVERGREEN ORDER: You may also turn in cards for any of the Evergreen orders on the Reference Cards. Evergreen orders are simple teas that do not earn prestige, but are reliable ways to generate a small amounts of profit to source more Ingredients.

Game End

The game continues until one of the Order Decks are emptied. When this happens, finish the current round and tally your Final Score.

Final Score

• Prestige: Add the Prestige value of all order cards displayed in your tea shop.
• Favor Tokens: 1 Prestige for each Favor Token.
• Money: 1 Prestige for every 5 money.

The player with the most Prestige is the winner!

Breaking Ties

1. If there is a tie; whoever has the highest RAW Prestige total wins.
2. If there is still a tie; whoever has the most Favor Tokens wins.
3. If there is still a tie; the game is tied.
