Tea for TWO PEOPLE

Step back into 18th‑century Maryland over a cup of tea. 🫖 Join us at the historic Rising Sun Inn for Tavern Talk &amp; Tea: Tea and the Revolution,&nbsp;with Diane Duray on Wednesday, June 10, 2026 at 11:30AM . Learn why tea is so closely linked to the American Revolution. This will be an Elvenses Tea which includes tea and sweets. As the colonist considered themselves British their consumption of tea was a daily ritual. British goods imported to the colonies were taxed by the Crown. The taxes on tea were high and seemed unfair to the colonists. As Britain taxed more and more, the colonists felt that they were being taxed without representation in Britain, hence the saying &ldquo;taxation without representation.&rdquo; The colonists boycotted tea and destroyed tea which later became known as the Boston Tea Party. Other colonies also had their own tea parties, including Annapolis. We will explore those actions of the British and the dumping of tea.&nbsp;
