Tea with Jane Austen

The blending of historical context and culinary arts feels so charming and immersive. I wonder if there was a particular moment or research that sparked this idea.

The descriptions of the teas and settings are so vivid that I could almost smell the scones! Has anyone tried recreating any of these recipes?

The book balances history and culinary storytelling beautifully, but I’m curious how the selections were made—what stories or themes guided those choices?
