In 1764, Great Britain passed the Sugar Act, making life far less sweet for the American colonists—especially the New England ports that bore the brunt of its effects. This new tax drove up prices and left a bitter taste across the colonies. But Massachusetts found its voice in Sam Adams and James Otis, who fought relentlessly against the injustice. Their efforts paid off when, in 1766, the Sugar Act was finally repealed.

If our Boston Spice Queen’s Spice had been around back then, folks might’ve gladly paid the tax just to enjoy its one-of-a-kind flavor. Luckily, you don’t have to—because today, it’s tax-free! Queen’s Spice is a sugar-based blend crowned with the elegant taste of lavender and kissed with hints of spearmint and lemon. It’s your secret weapon to add that unforgettable “WOW” to any baked creation.

We’ve used Queen’s Spice to elevate a humble berry crisp into a royal dessert, stirred it into a majestic martini, and even turned an ordinary cup of coffee into a truly regal brew. Try it in your brownies, cupcakes, whipped cream, truffles, shortcakes, crepes, and more. However you use it, Queen’s Spice is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Treat yourself to sublime flavor and make our specialty Queen's Spice Cookies (look for the recipe on our website). They were a crowning achievement at our last party, so roll out the dough for some of this specialty spice. Your court will be glad you did!
