Win! An Elizabethan Royal Afternoon Tea

Sip and savour a piece of royal history this spring as InterContinental London Park Lane, former childhood residence of Queen Elizabeth II, launches its new signature Elizabethan Royal Tea. The luxury hotel's afternoon tea offers a taste of British royal culture and is inspired by the legacies of the late Queen Elizabeth I and II, whose shared love for decadent teas and confections shaped the tradition of afternoon tea. Paired with a bespoke tea menu from heritage brand, The East India Company, the afternoon tea encapsulates the finest of British produce, with elements of the experience provided and created by Royal Warrant holders.

Take a seat in the opulent surroundings of The Wellington Lounge for an afternoon of beautifully handcrafted savoury finger sandwiches, pristine pastries, delicate cakes and homemade scones, all served on beautiful new Wedgewood English bone china. From the 'Royal Warrant' Salmon & Caviar Bliss and Monarch's Coronation Chicken Royale, inspired by Elizabeth II's famous 1953 coronation dish, to the Elizabeth I Syllabub, a pastry royally adorned with a sable as a nod to the Virgin Queen's love of these sweet confections, this symbolic spread celebrates the reigns of these two majestic monarchs.

Hand-selected by Tea Master, Lalith Lenadora, the new tea menu features over 20 infusions from across the globe, including three exclusively curated blends, such as the Elizabeth II, crafted with rooibos from South Africa, vanilla from Sri Lanka and delicate rose petals as an ode to the Commonwealth. For a true royal treat, pair your afternoon tea with a glass of champagne, from Royal Warrant holder Veuve Clicquot, or The Queen's Cocktail - Queen Elizabeth II's favourite blend of gin and dubonnet. Provided by Royal Warrant holder Charbonnel et Walker, guests are ensured a sweet end to the tea with a chocolate takeaway treat.

Priced at £74 per person, or £86 per person with a glass of Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Champagne NV, the Elizabethan Royal Tea will be available daily between 1pm - 5pm. Book your spot now at parklane.intercontinental.com the-wellington-lounge.
