My Theme Tea

"What is a weekend?" - Lady Violet Crawley

Downton Abbey

This menu is based on a combination of the series and first movie. I hope you enjoy this tea as you watch reruns, prepare for the new movie premiere, celebrate mothers day or any day to chat about Downton with friends!

  • Tea Recommendation

    As Robert is the Earl of Grantham, we recommend a cup of Earl Grey. But if that isn't your style, you may enjoy anything looseleaf as tea bags were not yet available in the UK. Be sure to keep a jug of water on the table, just like Moseley as he trembled to serve the Queen and King!

  • Tea Tip

    Starter: Begin this meal with a small pot of oatmeal topped with Peanut Butter and Jam, celebrating Mrs. Patmore. She's sweet and is the glue that holds the kitchen together.

    Easily create Daisy Shaped Sugar with these molds. Mix sugar with a little water (with or without food colouring for effect), then pack tightly into the molds. Leave overnight to dry and voilĂ !
