Afternoon Tea at Hush in Mayfair

A few weekends ago, we visited Hush in Mayfair to take afternoon tea and cocktails. The restaurant and tearooms are are situated in a quiet courtyard in Mayfair, and I'd been to the courtyard a couple of times before.

We started the afternoon tea with a pot of English Breakfast tea to share. The tea was nice, but I felt that it got a little too strong for my tastes after being left to brew for a while. While we sipped our tea, our cocktails were brought over. The cocktails were gin-based, and I thought that they were delicious. The cocktail I had was mixed with elderflower cordial, and it had a sweet taste. The bloke ordered the lemon, and it had a nice sweet-and-sour flavour.

Unfortunately, I felt a little disappointed with the rest of the afternoon tea. The cocktails were the nicest bit of this experience, but we didn't get much cocktail. We received plenty of sandwiches, two small scones each, and four macaroons. The scones came with clotted cream and three different types of jam (strawberry, red raspberry, and cherry).

We received four flavours of macaroons, but they were not the best I've had. We also received some gin-infused treat, which I'm not sure how to describe. We were not quite sure how to eat/drink this, but it tasted a little bit like the bloke's lemon-y cocktail.
