"Flutter Magazine Nr.14"

It is time for another Tea Party!
Summer season is so full of options, this time I picked the Orange blossom theme in collaboration with Flutter Magazine, one of the most inspiring magazines out there dedicated to The Art of Living. So, yes, this is more than just a delicious "Tea Party", this spread was featured in Flutter magazine issue No. 14, now on the stands at Barney & Noble.
I am pretty excited about this as I am a lover of glamorous table arrangings and tea parties.
For this tea party, I used a mix of new & antique blue china tea ware, a delicious orange pie, and orange blossom tea. In case you are interested in this refreshing summer tea (served hot or cold), here is the recipe:

6-12 Orange Blossom Flowers
2 cups water
Honey or Sugar

-Select a handful of single blossoms.If you are using blossoms from

your own garden, make sure they have not been sprayed with chemicals.
-Next, bring the water to a boil. Once the water boils, add six flowers and let steep for 3-5 minutes.
-Remove the steeped flowers and pour infused water into your preferred cups. -Garnish with a single orange blossom flower.
-Sweeten the tea with honey or sugar if desired and serve with Orange Blossom Cake!

Enjoy!
