London Fog Latte

Mocktail
Drink: London Fog Latte

Lavender, vanilla and brown sugar? Definitely our cup of tea. London Fog Latte is a sweet, versatile mocktail that would pair with a morning email scan or an evening reminiscing with old friends. Bitter notes of Earl Grey tea balance out the sweetness, and a sprinkle of dried lavender adds another layer of complexity with a calming aroma and aftertaste.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. strongly brewed Earl Grey tea
  • 1/2 tsp. dried lavender
  • 4 oz. steamed milk (any kind)
  • 1 tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Preparation

  1. Brew Earl Grey tea and lavender together, and steep for 3 minutes (or according to tea instructions).
  2. Remove tea bag and strain out the lavender.
  3. If steaming milk at home, use a microwave but don't let the milk boil over.
  4. Stir in remaining ingredients until combined. Serve warm.
