New England’s Best Teahouses | Eater Boston

"Steps away from Notch Brewing’s session beer-focused taproom in Salem, Massachusetts, get a different kind of buzz at Jolie Tea Company’s original Derby Street location. Settle onto a plush teal bench seat inside for a flight of teas beautifully paired with a trio of macarons. The chic shop also serves high tea by reservation and cocktail-inspired iced teas like the green fairy — a vibrant green tea akin to absinthe with subtle notes of anise — in coupe glasses alongside a full carafe. With 300 teas and dozens of treats from which to choose, Jolie is a welcome respite after touring Salem’s top attractions like the nearby House of Seven Gables. Find a second location of the charming teahouse in Beverly, Massachusetts." - Stasia Brewczynski
