Afternoon tea is getting a fun summer update today.

You know I’m typically all about tea but today calls for strawberry lemonade,

a perfect match to these scones fit for royalty. Join me for a tea party!

No matter how hot it is outside, this updated afternoon tea will be just perfect.

Sweet and tangy ice cold strawberry lemonade is definitely on the menu, and, well,

it wouldn’t be afternoon British tea for royalty without delicious scones.

These will be my new go-to scone for entertaining; the flavors are so fresh and delicious.

Just one bite and you will taste all the deliciousness.

The slightly sweet and tangy taste of these strawberry lemonade scones should be at every afternoon tea.

I think we should call the UK and let them know what they are missing out on.

After all, they have been holding out on the fact that Tate+Lyle® Sugars have been gracing Britain’s finest tables for over 130 years. I’m glad they are sharing them with us, so I think it’s only fair to do the same and share our newfound foodie yumminess with them. Don’t you? Tate+Lyle® Sugars have a unique texture and distinct flavors; their natural and organically grown sugars are perfect for adding an inspiring taste to recipes and beverages or for a glistening sweet crunch as a topping.
