With so many different types of tea, it is, like wine, a great drink to pair with a variety of foods. In this program, guests sample four different types of teas paired with certain chocolates selected to bring out the best in both, whether it is to complement, enhance or contrast flavors. All the teas and chocolates in this fun and informative program come from Michigan tea rooms and Michigan chocolatiers.
