I LOVE High Tea! Being able to get a little dressy, drink/eat delicious bites, and have an afternoon with my girls is what fun times are made of! So it was a pleasure to preview the Fig & Olive new afternoon high tea service. Fig & Olive has collaborated with Tea Forteโ€™ and launched a new high tea menu that includes classic teas, light bites, and customized delicacies from Chef Jeffrey. (Can we say Champagne Steeped Teas! Moet ALL Day! :))

French Riviera Lounge

The tea service is located in the beautifully inspired French Riviera front lounge. Selections include:

  • Tea Forteโ€™ selections
    • Rum Raisin Biscotti (black tea with the taste of rum-soaked raisins and sweet blackberry leaves)
    • Bombay Chai (blend of black tea and spices found in a traditional Indian masala chai)
    • Moroccan Mint (blend of Moroccan nana mint leaves and hand-rolled rare gunpowder green tea)
    • Wild Berry Hibiscus (tart-sweet juicy berries punctuated with hibiscus tea brewing flowers and rose hips)
  • Savory and Sweet Menu Items
    • Smoke salmon profiteroles
    • Heirloom tomato tartlet
    • zucchini bread and white chocolate dried cranberry scones served with vanilla crรจme fraรฎche and honey butter
    • Macarons
    • And Moreโ€ฆ..(I wonโ€™t spoil everything :))

 

For those looking to treat themselves to a little something extra you can upgrade to the Royal Tea. ($19 additional per person). The royal tea includes serving teas steeped with Moet & Chandon Champagne.

  • Royal Tea Service
    • Blueberry Merlot (herbal tea of summer-sweet blueberry with a wisp of sage)
    • Raspberry Nectar (raspberry blend that steeps in a dramatic way)

I would say my favorites were theโ€ฆโ€ฆ

Truffled Egg Sandwich
