London Fog Tea Latte

London Fog is an earl grey tea latte. In my recipe, earl grey tea is steeped with lavender, sweetened with homemade vanilla syrup and topped with steamed frothed milk. A cozy, calming beverage.

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Bring the water to boil in a saucepan over high heat. Once boiling, remove off of the heat. Add tea bag and tea infuser holding 1/2 teaspoon lavender.*
Steep the tea for as long as directed on the package directions.
Meanwhile, pour milk and vanilla syrup into your milk frother, heat and froth the milk.**
Once the tea has steeped, remove the infuser and tea bag, squeeze out any tea from the bag.
Pour the brewed tea into a 10 ounce (or larger) mug before pouring in the milk, spooning the remaining froth over top.

Notes

*Use any milk you prefer! You can also froth the milk in a small sauce pan. Heat while whisking until frothy. Keep in mind, some milks from easier and better than others.

**If you don't have a tea infuser, you can simply add the lavender directly to the water, and pour the tea through a strainer once it has steeped.
