Enjoy some colonial music (singing along is encouraged), learn about colonial tea etiquette and 18th century foodways, then break off into your own ‘room’ to enjoy time socializing with friends and family. Each participant will receive several colonial recipes suited for a tea, their own 1/2 oz package of tea from Alchemy & Herbs, and a colonial zoom background. A great way to share the joy of the season!
