The outdoor patio provides a shaded area on a nice Florida day.
Infusion Tea is located on Edgewater Drive just down from the College Park Publix. The artisan tea shop has grown into something special over the years. The larger shop and dining space offers a nice atmosphere to sit down and enjoy a cup of hot or iced tea. On nice weather days, the shaded patio area is a nice option.
The large dining space set up for a baby shower, the couches in the back provided a nice space to relax prior to the festivities and to open gifts.
On my most recent visit we saw a group of over 20 ladies enjoying a baby shower in their open dining room. Service was attentive and I can see that a bridal shower, baby shower, birthday party or wedding tea would be perfect at Infusion.
So many tea choices…
The large selections of Teas can be bought in the shop or online and shipped to you or a tea enthusiast in another area. With so many menu options for breakfast, lunch and dinner Infusion is a nice choice for a quick stop or lingering meal.
Tea for two included a pot of tea (hot or iced) tea sandwiches, fruit bread, scones, cookies and a scoop of gelato.
A decadent way to spend an afternoon is the full tea, pictured here for two. We enjoyed a pot of the Infinitely Sweet Oolong, the ‘Li Li Xiang’ Anxi Oolong is darkly roasted. The roasting imparts a smoky, earthy flavor which was very pleasing sipping with or without food.
Scone flavors vary, we had Mango Passion fruit and Black Cherry, both were nice choices.
There were two scones included, one of each flavor offered that day. We enjoyed both equally and the strawberry jam and clotted cream were delicious.
This tea lover had to get some tea to go. I choose a wonderful Ginger Cinnamon Spice herbal blend and the classic Chamomile. With this new tea infuser mug, my days in the office are much more enjoyable.
We could not leave Infusion Tea without getting some goodies to enjoy at home. The Chamomile tea had a fresh, strongly Chamomile taste and makes a lovely cup of tea. The Ginger Cinnamon Spice was a nice fall option, similar to a Chai but without the caffeine. The Tomato Blue soup made a very nice dinner for my friend and she’s enjoying her Chamomile and Ginger Peach teas. We both picked up the glass mug pictured, which makes a lovely cup of tea with our new loose teas. Infusion Tea’s shop has lots of nice tea accessories, tea pots and tea gadgets to choose from, in addition to a wonderful selection of tea.
