Overview

Old-Fashioned Afternoon Tea Recipes

Take a tasty trip back in time and recreate some of these old-fashioned tea-tolling recipes from the late 1700s to the early 1900s. You'll find simple, practical recipes like jelly-covered leftover pie crust, traditional recipes of tea cakes and rusks, and a few unusual recipes like the "Maids of Honor" said to have been served to Queen Elizabeth. Sprinkled throughout are antique tea ads and advice from the original cookbooks.

"Tea-leaves that have been once used are collected, 'doctored,' and again sold as fresh tea."
