Ingredients

  • 1 cup water (8 oz)
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried lavender
  • 1 earl grey tea bag
  • 1/4 cup milk (of choice, 2 oz)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey (or sweetener of choice)

Method

  1. Add 1/4 teaspoon lavender to 1 cup water and bring it to low boil. Then add the earl grey tea bag, turn off heat, cover and let it steep for 3 to 4 minutes. You can use a tea brewer here and brew 1 cup of earl grey tea with 1/4 teaspoon dried lavender.
  2. Strain the brewed tea using a strainer.
  3. Heat up the milk in a pot (or use a milk steamer). Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla to it. Please note that you can skip heating the milk if you like, I prefer my drinks "extra hot" and hence I heat up the milk.
  4. Add the milk to the brewed tea, add sweetener of choice and stir. Use a frother to froth the milk if you like. Enjoy your london fog tea latte warm with a side of cookies!
