Throw a Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea Party

There is nothing more delicious and delectable than afternoon tea. Flowers, sugar, tiny sandwiches, and teapots sprawl across a beautiful tabletop. If you’re looking for a classic Mother’s Day tea idea host an afternoon tea party.

Plan Out the Details

Do you want to host an afternoon Mother’s Day tea party? You can choose any tea party theme you want or keep it simple and straight to the point with flowers and beautiful decor. 

Break out your teaware and set up plates, silverware, tea cups, saucers, and napkins ahead of time. Afternoon tea is all about the prep, and preparing a beautiful tablescape is a huge part of the fun.

Plan a Creative Menu

Scones with Devonshire cream and jam are a necessity. Petite savories such as miniature quiches or cheesy pastry puffs give a salty balance to the menu. Three to six kinds of finger sandwiches are a great variety. 

Tea time snacks are a must if you’re hosting an afternoon tea. A healthy display of tiny petit fours — tiny cakes and sweets — makes afternoon tea simply adorable.

Gift Her Something That Will Last Forever

Are you searching for something to make this Mother’s Day tea idea extra special? Blooming flower teas are a gorgeous showstopper at any tea event. Gift your mom a beautiful classic teapot for this special occasion that she will use forever. 

What makes this tea set incredible is that it’s made of a forward-thinking, eco-conscious, toxic-free material called borosilicate glass. It’s strong, long-lasting, easy to clean, and makes your tea taste spectacular. 

Host a Small and Sweet Tea Tasting

If you want to keep the festivities small and intimate have a tea tasting instead. If it’s you two and a handful of people, a tea tasting is a fun event to host and an excellent Mother’s Day tea idea. Encourage your mom to sample different teas and discover a new flavor that might become a new favorite.

Set the Sampling Table

These small teacups are fun for the occasion if you have more than a few guests. They are the perfect size for sampling small portions of tea! 

Tip: Concerned about buying too many teacups? Don’t be! Keep the teacups and teapots so you can host your very own tea parties in the future. 

If it’s just the two of you or a few of you use larger teacups. You can also gift these to your guests. They make wonderful take-home presents they’ll enjoy using on the daily. 

Put out milk, sugar, honey, and lemon if you think your guests take accompaniments in their tea.

Choose Teas for Sampling

To make tea tasting easy and carefree use these tea sachets. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, this larger tea sachet sampler is a fun Mother’s Day tea idea. It has a wide variety of so many high-quality, whole-leaf teas. 

The best part about these tea sachets is that they’re 100% compostable. Regular teabags that claim to be biodegradable wreak havoc on the environment. You can learn more about harmful teabags and the best kinds of teabags here.

Gift Her Something She Will Love to Use

Use a quality tea kettle for your tea tasting throughout the day. We recommend one made without harmful materials or metals. Instead, seek out a kettle that is made of borosilicate glass.

We love this tea kettle because it’s made of healthy materials. It’s sturdy and has a built-in thermometer to heat water to the proper temperature for every kind of tea. When the party is over, she can steep small or large batches of tea directly in the tea kettle.

Not only is this kettle made of healthy materials, but it is sturdy, and it has a built-in thermometer to heat water to the proper temperature for every kind of tea. She can also steep small or large batches of tea inside the tea kettle. Now, she doesn't have to fuss over a teapot and all of the tea trinkets that make tea time so fussy. 

Plan a Long-Distance Virtual Mother’s Day Tea Party

Does your mom live far away? Not everyone can celebrate Mother’s Day with their mom in person. But, you can still make Mother’s Day extra special for her by throwing a long-distance tea party.

This is an excellent Mother’s Day tea idea, but be sure to plan this a little ahead of time. You want her to receive everything she needs to have afternoon tea with you over the phone or computer camera.

Pick a Time and Plan the Party

Will it be just the two of you or a few people? With a little planning and prep, you can make this experience one to remember for a long time. 

Play a question-answer game with everyone. Or, you can just chat away and enjoy each other’s company. 

You can even plan a movie day. What’s her favorite movie? Watch it on your TV screens while enjoying tea together. 

Tip: A lot of TVs have group viewing capabilities. Take advantage if you have access!

Send Her a Box of Tea Time Essentials

Does your mom have all the trinkets she needs for a fun afternoon tea with you? Send her an afternoon tea party package ahead of time so she can prepare for this Mother’s Day tea idea. 

Ship her some essentials like teapots, tea cups, spoons, accessories, teas, and maybe even some chai tea cookies! Other ideas include scone mix or pre-packaged goodies.

Try to make the experience as hands-off for her as possible. If a local tea house can deliver to your mom’s doorstep that’s ideal! 

Or, coordinate with a friend or family member who lives close by. Can they help prepare a small spread of tea foods and goodies for the day so your mom can sit and relax?

You can always keep this Mother’s Day tea idea simple and have a cup of tea over the phone. Time is precious and every thoughtful, simple moment becomes significant and special.
