Finally, the rituals of an infused cup of tea are gaining recognition!
For many years, an elaborate and expensive cup of coffee has become an expectation in our society, where the “cups of tea” have patiently waited, while retaining their unchanged place as the most widely consumed beverage in the world, second only to water. There remains a huge difference, and gladly so – as a tea experience remains one of an unhurried pace, one of relaxation – one of reflection. Delicious lunches, fresh baked scones, and secret dessert recipes accompany for a final touch…
Therefore, it is to no surprise that across the nation, tea lovers and “passionaries”
are operating the greatest tea rooms – all special and uniquely reflective of each owner’s heritage, passion, and background. From the “shabby chic” and Victorian ambiance, to the true British “RoyalTea”
room; there is at least one to fit every discerning taste. In the Central Florida Region it is as diverse, as described in the newly released book My Proper Tea…the journey, the stories, and the infusion of the heart…, authored by Brenda Santelises, known as The Etiquette Diva.
My Proper Tea includes reviews, recipes, history of tea, a tea glossary and much more; highlighting in detail the following tea rooms: The Magnolia, in Auburndale; Trish’s, in Baldwin Park; Victorian Grace, in Brandon; Sherlock’s, in Celebration;
Infusion Tea, in College Park; Back Porch Garden, in Crystal River; The Angel, in Dade City; Moffat’s, in Dunedin; The Garden Gate, in Mt. Dora; Maggie’s, in New Tampa; The Corner Rose, in Orlando; Pickwick’s, in Ormond Beach; Camellia Rose & Southern Belle’s, in Plant City; Southern Comfort, in Ruskin; Main Street, in Safety Harbor; Hart Sisters, in Sanford; A Corner of England, in St. Petersburg; Sofia’s, in Tampa; and Tussie Mussie’s, in Valrico.
