A clear glass filled with a pinkish-orange drink garnished with a strawberry and purple and yellow edible flowers sits on a wooden table, perfect for an elegant afternoon tea. The background is blurred with warm, yellow bokeh lights.

Spring has sprung! We are ready to kick off the weekend with something light and refreshing since these temperatures are rising. This Afternoon Tea recipe from Weights + Measures is the perfect thing, and we can’t wait to enjoy a glass shortly. 😉 (And if you’re preggo like me, I’ll be sipping on the mocktail version—find that recipe at the bottom of the post.) We hope you’ll join us! Here’s how to make it.

This cocktail is gorgeous and so refreshing. The perfect Spring time drink!

Here’s what you need to do for the MOCKTAIL version of this yummy libation. It’s simple. All you have to do is substitute the tequila with extra sparkling water. Viola! To make the chamomile honey syrup boil 3/4 cup of water, 1/3 cup of honey, and two chamomile bags. Then top it off with one ounce of strawberry puree and garnish with edible flowers and a strawberry. Delicious!!

Cheers, mamas! Hope you have a happy Friday!
