Time for tea

Time for tea

Popping in for a cup of tea is an age-old tradition between friends that has been all but lost with younger generations. While meeting for lunch or dinner can become a big, hectic (and expensive) affair, a simple cuppa with a good mate can be the perfect catch-up opportunity and is often easier to co-ordinate with busy calendars.

  • Welcome an old friend over to your place by inviting them for tea, coffee or some fresh juice. Make the conversation the main attraction rather than the food and invite a mate you haven't seen in a while over for tea - an old school friend, someone you used to work with, or a favourite relative.
  • What to serve? Leaf tea poured from a teapot is nicer than dunking tea bags, with a plate of tasty choc chip cookies – make a batch or just buy them.
  • We have the perfect invites for such an occasion here.
