Follow The Directions

01

Step

Begin by bringing the water to a rolling boil in a kettle or saucepan. (Approximately 5 minutes)

02

Step

Remove from the heat and carefully introduce the Earl Grey teabag. Allow the tea to steep, undisturbed, for precisely 5 minutes to extract the full flavor profile.

03

Step

While the tea steeps, gently heat the milk in a microwave-safe container or saucepan until it is steaming, but not boiling. (Approximately 1-2 minutes in the microwave, or 3-4 minutes on the stovetop)

04

Step

Infuse the warmed milk with the vanilla syrup, stirring gently to incorporate the flavors.

05

Step

Using a frother, immersion blender, or even a whisk, transform the milk into a luxurious, velvety foam.

06

Step

Pour the steeped Earl Grey tea into your favorite mug. Slowly and deliberately, cascade the foamy milk over the tea, allowing the foam to create a delicate crown.

07

Step

If desired, garnish with a sprinkle of culinary-grade lavender buds to enhance the aromatic experience.

For an elevated experience, consider using a high-quality vanilla bean in place of syrup. Simply scrape the seeds into the milk while heating.
Adjust the amount of vanilla syrup to your personal preference. Some may prefer a more subtle sweetness, while others enjoy a bolder vanilla flavor.
Experiment with different types of milk to find your perfect London Fog. Oat milk and almond milk both offer unique flavor profiles that complement the Earl Grey tea beautifully.
Ensure your lavender buds are culinary-grade to avoid any unpleasant flavors or textures.
