The Potted Geranium Tea Parlor

While we were visiting the lake country area of Georgia last weekend, my sweet mother-in-law took me out to the lovely Potted Geranium Tea Parlor for an afternoon excursion.

The antebellum home was originally built in the 1840s and has been restored to maintain the lovely historic details. There are six individual tea rooms as well as a screened porch. The house and surrounding gardens make the Potted Geranium Tea Parlor a charming complement to the area's antique shops, art galleries, custom homes and beautiful lakes.

We ordered small plates of delicious shrimp, chicken and spinach salads. We sipped peach and apricot tea, each fresh-brewed in a cozy-cuddled pot.

We enjoyed a long conversation over a refreshing summer Bellini, and finished off our meal with a homemade cream puff. Delicious!

My mother-in-law is such a loving woman. I am so thankful to have her in my life. We had a wonderful time at the tea parlor together, and I would highly recommend the Potted Geranium to anyone visiting the central-east Georgia area! There is also a gift shop for those who wish to purchase the tea pot cozies, loose leaf teas, antique cups, and other fun tea-related trinkets.
