Is that a crumpet or are you just happy to see me?
Beginning March 29, Shady Grove Lounge in the Silverton is being transformed into Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, a pop-up bar inspired by “Alice in Wonderland” and its tea party chapter. The pop-up features colorful, oversize decor, tea party cocktails and a tea tree provisioned with nibbles.
Among the cocktails are a Tennessee Tea (Knob Creek bourbon, honey simple syrup, rose water), a Bees Knees (gin, lemon verbena tea, honey simple syrup, lemon juice), and a Mar-tea-ni (green tea vodka, cucumber simple syrup, yuzu sour mix, gold glitter).
The tiers of the tea tree are variously set with white cheddar-truffle popcorn, spiced and salty mixed nuts, jalapeño pub cheese, Boursin and brie, and assorted petit fours.
