A Simple Summertime Tea for One

Sometimes, pleasure can be found in the simplest of things.  A tiny mason jar full of pretty little blooms freshly picked from the garden.

Aren't these sweet?

A cheerful little teapot with flowers indicative of the beauty of Summer...

paired with a beautiful cup of freshly brewed lavender tea.

I love the subtle gilding on the rim of the cup and top of the teapot.  So delicate.  The two are from different makers, but they play quite nicely together.  ;-)

To make Lavender tea, simply steep culinary lavender in a tea infuser.  It can be done in the pot or cup.  I enjoy the tea with a splash of lemon, and a tiny bit of honey and sugar.

The lavender tea was steeped in this darling little teapot infuser.  So cute!

The tea was quite lovely with a slice of my Nue Gâteau au Citron avec Infusion des Raisins Blancs, set here on a miniature fluted cake plate.

These light flavors are delicate and just right for a warm Summer day.



I hope you all are enjoying the beautiful weather!

Until next we meet...
