Pinecone Cottage Tea House – A Taste of Tucson Sonoran Style Tea

Last year on a trip to Arizona, Paul and I spent a lot of time in Tucson exploring the local cuisine. The aromas of Southwestern cuisine are irresistible: smokey, lush, herbal, spicy and toasted. The harvest
season is the perfect time to showcase these flavors of corn, beans, squash, peppers, tomatoes, and fresh from the garden herbs. Somehow, this marvelous food is exotic but homey at the same time. This is the essence of Sonoran cuisine and the inspiration for this late summer and early autumn Afternoon Tea menu.
