We all love afternoon tea – a British delicacy dating back to the 17th century. We love it so much we have a national event dedicated to it – Afternoon Tea Week takes place every second full week in August and will be on August 7 to 13 this year.
National Afternoon Tea Week
Ah, the afternoon tea, a delicate balance of sweet and savoury treats elegantly presented and accompanied with a traditional pot of tea. We thought you might like to know the origins of this quintessentially English pastime.
