Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 bag Earl Grey tea bag
  • 0.75 cup Boiling water
  • 0.25 cup Milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla syrup optional, adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Sweetener optional, such as granulated sugar or honey

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Place the Earl Grey tea bag in a mug with 0.75 cup of boiling water and allow it to steep for 5 minutes. Remove the teabag. If desired, add vanilla syrup and/or your choice of sweetener to the tea and stir.
  2. While the tea is steeping, heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or in the microwave until it's steaming hot (do not boil). Use a milk frother for about 15 seconds, or whisk vigorously, until the milk doubles in size and becomes super foamy.
  3. Carefully pour the frothed milk over the hot tea and stir gently to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade London Fog.

Notes

For the best flavor, use a high-quality Earl Grey tea. Adjust the amount of vanilla syrup and sweetener to match your personal preference. A milk frother is highly recommended to achieve the signature creamy and foamy texture.
