Herbal tea can sit alongside other drinks on an afternoon tea menu. Present it as a clearly named choice, with enough product information for guests to decide what they would like.
Write an informative menu
Use the specific tea name rather than a single heading promising a wellness drink. If several infusions are available, list them separately. Keep the packets nearby so guests can inspect the ingredients. A short description can explain the serving without inventing benefits or guaranteeing a flavour.
Organise cups and pots
Think about whether a pot will serve several people choosing the same tea or whether individual cups will be easier. Use the supplied brewing instructions for each product. Different preferences need not turn the table into a complicated tasting station; two well-presented options can be enough.
Make food pairings a matter of taste
Invite guests to choose the cakes or savouries they enjoy with their drink. Label any food additions separately. A tea does not need a supposedly correct pastry pairing to belong on the menu. If you find a combination you like, note the actual tea and food so you can offer it again.
