An international series of alternative tea parties are the result of a collaboration between Hendrick's Gin and The Adventurists.

The events, to be held in London, Edinburgh, New York and Madrid, each centre around a legendary figure from the world of adventure. Yachtsman Sir Chay Blyth hosts the first event in London, and will be accompanied by an aerial acrobatic performance by the No Fit State Circus.

The ticketed event costs £12, and runs from 4-9pm. The London tea party will be held on 5 February at The Round Chapel in Hackney, London. On 7 May the tea party heads to New York, followed by 11 June in Madrid, before returning to the UK for an Edinburgh tea party on 15 October.
