High Tea at the Mandarin Oriental in Munich, my insights for you!

Afternoon Tea in classy atmosphere? My insights for you!



Hey guys,


as a teenager I spend many weeks of the year in the UK, what I miss about the most is Londons tea time. I love how the people are obsessed with this wonderful tradition of celebrating tea and time. 

Glad that the Mandarin Oriental is now offering High Tea in Munich, feels like being back in good old England.

They offer High Tea from Friday - Sunday (2.00 - 5.00 p.m.) in their really cozy and modern designed Lounge. Make sure you haven't eaten anything before and you take at least 1,5 hours of your time, as they offer so many fantastic freshly baked products for you to try. Reservation is a must, please see link underneath I attached for contact information.

The Afternoon Tea menue is including beside the amazing range of fresh dishes a tea of your choice. You can ask the amazing service for help, as they have a own tea sommelier which can give you perfect recommendations if your getting lost between all the fantastic choices.

For tea enthusiasts a special recommendation, ask the tea sommelier for the JING product range. As you can see in the picture they offer you to take a look into different sorts of tea before you order. If you don't know the JING tea, it is only natural - no artificial flavors. Make sure you check out the rose or smoked tea.

What is fitting perfectly to the High Tea is a glass of bubbly, we decided to have Rose Champagner which I think is the perfect match for celebrating High Tea.

Fight the nasty flu bug (and others) with this homemade tea, ready in 5 min!

Hey guys,

its flu and cold season, so make sure you boost your immun system to stay healthy and energetic.


The easiest way for me is to make my "special" tea, which I discovered some years ago.


One thing that is important, don't wait to long to make this tea - right in the beginning when you feel the first symptoms of a flu/cold make sure you take 5 minutes to treat yourself with this tea.


When I feel sick I normally make this tea 3 times a day, before or while having breakfast / lunch / dinner. 


I avoid alcohol, fast food and sadly also my weekly sports routine during this time, as the immun system needs to recover.


What you need is as simple as the recipe itself:


- handful of ginger 

- 1 tea spoon of honey
- juice of one lemon
- hot water

1. squeeze out a bio lemon (1), add this fresh lemon juice to

    the cup.
2. peel and chop the ginger in a handful portion. Make sure
    you use a good kitchen knife, to get rid of the though skin
   of the ginger, add this juice to the cup. I don't eat the
   chopped ginger, its only in the tea to give his healthy boost
   into the hot water. 
3. add the hot water in the cup.
4. add one tea spoon of honey in the hot cup.
5. mix everything with a tea spoon and enjoy the delicious
    outcome of tea you just made. 

Thats it, enjoy and stay healthy ! 


Cheers,

Melanie
