Gilded Age Tea & Talk Series: The Gilded Age in a Glass at Staatsburgh

Apr 21, 2024 1:00 PM Location: 75 Mills Mansion Dr, Staatsburg, NY 12580

Enjoy tea and scones in the formal dining room while listening to talks about Gilded Age history. The Gilded Age gave us some of our most famous drinks - the Martini, the Daiquiri, the Old Fashioned, and others. Cocktails -- their ingredients, their stories, their pageantry -- reveal unexpected aspects of American society. Staatsburgh Historic Site Assistant Zachary Veith will explore social scandals, women’s suffrage, American imperialism, and other influences behind the popular mixed drinks of yesterday and today.

COST $60/PERSON Reservations required: TeaAndTalk.Eventbrite.com
