This recipe will guide you through making a classic London Fog drink that's rich in bergamot notes from Earl Grey black loose leaf tea, softened by steamed milk, and subtly sweetened with vanilla.
0.5 cup hot water
0.5 cup milk of your choice (whole milk, oat milk, almond milk, soy milk all work well)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 teaspoons sweetener of choice (sugar, honey, maple syrup)
Place the Earl Grey Black tea bag (or loose leaf tea bag) into your mug. Pour the hot water over the tea. Let it steep for 4-5 mins, depending on your desired strength.
While the tea is steeping, gently heat the milk in a small saucepan until hot and steamy, but not boiling. Alternatively, use a milk frother to froth your milk until it's velvety and has a good foam.
Remove the tea bag from your mug. Stir in the vanilla extract and sweetener until dissolved.
Pour the hot, steamed milk over the steeped tea. If you've frothed the milk,you can spoon the foam on top.
Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of culinary lavender bud, a thin orange peel, or a dash of cinnamon for an extra touch of elegance and flavor.

The star of the show is the Pride of India’s Earl grey black tea with Bergamot extract.
While you want a strong tea, ideally steeping up to 5 mins and you can also further adjust steeping time to your preference.
Whole milk creates the creamiest and richest latte. You can choose vegan options like almond milk or Oat milk. These are also excellent for their natural sweetness and good frothing capabilities.
Don't skip the vanilla! It's crucial for balancing the bergamot and creating the signature flavor. Vanilla bean paste can also be used that will give a more intense vanilla flavor.
Ensure your water is hot enough for optimal tea steeping, and your milk is hot.
Just steep Earl Grey Black tea in hot water for about 5 minutes, then let it cool slightly. Fill a glass with ice cubes, pour in your choice of milk, add the sweetener and a teaspoon of vanilla extract, then top with the brewed tea. Give it a gentle mix and enjoy this cool, creamy, and floral delight!
Do the classic pairings right, enjoy your London Fog Drink with sugar cookies, muffins, pastries, croissants, or pancakes.
