Afternoon Tea at Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa ~ Giveaway!

Afternoon Tea at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa and a GIVEAWAY!

Lindsay’s Tea Party had an exquisite “Afternoon Tea” with our friends at the beautiful Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, Golf Club & Spa!

You know how we love to try new tea places, and this Resort has instantly become one of our favorites! Let us tell you why…

First, you arrive into a luxurious lobby with the welcoming sounds of a pianist playing beautiful sounding and soothing music as it echos through the halls. You then make your way over to the quiet Library located in the resort and are given a menu of teas like the one shown below…. to choose your first pot of tea.

LOOSE LEAF TEAS
BLACK TEA
BRAZILIAN FRUIT
This fragrant black tea blend, scented with chunks of
Maracuya passion fruit hailing from Brazil, is smooth and
nicely balanced with a slight sweetness and delicate spice.
CHOCOLATE ORANGE TRUFFLE
Madagascar vanilla, chocolate cacao nibs and orange peels
blend with Ceylon and China black tea leaves to impart a
full-bodied intriguing blend with dessert-like qualities.
EARL GREY ORGANIC
High-grown Ceylon and China black teas are combined with
the smoky citrus notes of bergamot fruit. An elegant,
balanced and full-flavored classic cup.
PEAR CARAMEL
Washington state pears have been blended with Ceylon and
China black teas and a touch of vanilla and sweet caramel.
The perfect after-dinner dessert tea or afternoon treats.
WHITE & GREEN TEA
SILVER JASMINE
The tender new buds, covered with silver-white hairs, are
picked in Fujian Province on only two days a year and
processed entirely by hand. Tossed with superior Jasmine
flowers, this rare tea gives forth a sweet rounded infusion
that is smooth and rich.
GREEN TEA PASSION
Enjoy a fragrant blend of delicate green teas from Japan,
China and Taiwan, accented by tropical fruits, including
guava, pineapple and strawberry. Healthy, soothing and
refreshing.
HERBAL & FRUIT BLENDED TEA
CAFFEINE-FREE
AFRICAN AMBER ORGANIC
The African rooibos or red bush makes a vivid and smooth
cup blended with hibiscus and exotic fruits of the African
continent. Rich in antioxidants, it promotes calm and
relaxation. Perfect for enhancing a peaceful state of mind.
CHAMOMILE CITRONTM
A unique mélange of Egyptian chamomile, citrus slices,
lemongrass, rose hips, hibiscus, and mint. Delicately fruity
and soothing, as well as an excellent source of Vitamin C.
WILD BLOSSOMS & BERRIES
Blackberry and black currant, infused with lemongrass,
hibiscus, chamomile, mint, licorice root, and spices produce
a hearty, memorable refreshment.

LTP chose the Pear Caramel Tea (a black flavored tea) that had an amazing caramel aroma, and as you lifting your tea cup to your mouth to drink, it gave you the sense and smell of a dessert in liquid form. My daughter chose the Chocolate Orange Truffle Tea and she likened it to a yummy hot cocoa flavor, she drank the entire pot and ordered a second pot!

Next, we decided upon the menu. Just look at these wonderful options:
