Cocktail Bar launches new High Tea Menu & Experiences
   
Brisbane's multi-award-winning Emporium Hotel has announced the ultimate Cocktail Bar High Tea Menu & Experience, which is guaranteed to have pinkies wagging. How delightful, how delectable, how decadent - the art of high tea is alive and well at the Emporium Hotel. Paying homage to the artisanship of high tea and enjoying the strong flavour of real loose-leaf tea served in a delicate china tea pot, accompanied by a three-tier stand laced with a fine selection of ribbon sandwiches, delicate pastries, delicious tarts, this is an experience worth waiting for, and there are four experiences from which to choose from….

  • The Emporium High Tea is the hotel's traditional high tea experience and includes a Glass of Deutz on arrival, ribbon sandwiches, petit fours and a selection of 'Twining's' Teas for $35pp.
  • The Exquisite High Teaincludes a glass of Piper-Heidsieck on arrival, petit fours, ribbon sandwiches and a selection of 'Twinings' Teas for $45pp.
  • The Royal High Teaincludes a glass of Mumm champagne on arrival, petit fours, ribbon sandwiches and a selection of 'Twinings' Teas for $55pp.
  • The Hendrick's High Teaincludes two Hendrick's cocktails (chosen from the award-winning Cocktail Bar's Hendrick's Menu) served in traditional 'Tea Cup' martini glasses (images available) with cucumber sandwiches, ribbon sandwiches, petit fours and a selection of 'Twinings' Tea for $65pp.

 

"The Emporium Hotel Cocktail Bar High Tea menu is perfect for anytime and any occasion," said Emporium Hotel's Cocktail Bar Manager, Lucy George. "Whether it be a gorgeous excuse to catch up with the girls,  a Christmas get-together, a hen's party or birthday, ladies of all ages (and many a fine gentleman, too) are enjoying the company of dear friends over this wonderful revival of British tradition," said Lucy.

Surrounded by a grand onyx bar over lit by an antique German chandelier that once hung in a European castle, to the stunning stained glass wall, originally a Parisian shop front crafted more than 100 years ago, sit back in your cozy chair as you indulge in your regal treat.

NOTE: Crooking pinkies while sipping is not essential….
