Tipsy Tea Party with a seasonal twist at Café à La C’Art (MENU)

Dec 11, 20191 min read

Everybody in the cafe is gettin’ tipsy.

Café à La C’Art is feeling festive this holiday season and is throwing a Tipsy Tea Party at 3:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, December 15.

The afternoon tea party is giving you the opportunity to get tipsy with some delicious Holiday Tea Cocktails, which are served alongside a selection of elegant, sweet, and savory seasonal teas.

On top of that, non-alcoholic options will be available, too, if you’d rather not have Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye in your Hot Toddy.

Seats are $40 per person. You’ll need to call (520) 628-8533 to reserve your spot because space is limited.

Tipsy Tea Party Menu

  • Arbuckle’s Hot Toddy – China black tea, orange peel, rose hips, lemon, desert honey, and Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye (served hot)
  • Arbuckle’s Apple Cinnamon – China black tea, cinnamon and apple extracts, Monin vanilla syrup, and Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey (iced)
  • Arbuckle Herbal Cranberry Pomegranate – Herbal tea blend, cranberry and pomegranate extracts, agave nectar, and Old Forester bourbon (iced)
  • Arbuckle’s Herbal Mint Echinacea – Peppermint, spearmint, echinacea, simple syrup, and Slane Triple Casked Irish whiskey (served hot)

Cafe a la C’Art is located at 150 N. Main Ave. For more information, visit Cafe a la C’Art’s Facebook page.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.

When @ginzatucson opened in 2008, it became the first restaurant in Tucson to feature an izakaya style menu, bringing Japan’s popular shareable dining experience to the city. Today, it’s still the only restaurant in town with a dedicated izakaya menu, along with one of Tucson’s largest curated selections of sake, Japanese beer, and shochu.

In 2018, the couple expanded again with @raijinramen, Tucson’s first restaurant dedicated entirely to ramen. Known for its rich tonkotsu broths and seasonal specialties, Raijin helped pave the way for the city’s growing ramen scene.

From fresh fish flown in daily from Japan and California to chef’s choice omakase experiences, Ginza continues to showcase authentic Japanese cuisine while Jun and Diana regularly travel to Japan to bring back the latest culinary trends.

📍 Ginza Sushi & Izakaya: 5425 N. Kolb Rd.
📍 Raijin Ramen: 2955 E. Speedway Blvd.
