Brewed earl grey tea leaves have notes of citrusy bergamot. Boil and froth your milk of choice, add an optional sweetener, and a sprinkle of lavender buds. Aromatic, citrusy, and smooth. This makes 12 oz.
Servings 1
Equipment
- Hand held frother optional
Ingredients
- 1 ½ tsp loose leaf earl grey tea (or 2 teabags)
- 1 cup boiling water 8 oz
- ½ cup 2% milk, or milk of choice 4 oz
- 1-2 tsp honey or other sweetener
- dried lavender buds
Instructions
- Add tea leaves to a cup with a strainer or a tea ball infuser or use teabags. Pour the boiling water over the leaves and let it step for 3 minutes.
- While steeping, heat the milk over medium-high heat in a heavy bottom saucepan. Whisk the milk constantly so it doesn't scald. Whisking the milk creates froth, or use a hand held milk frother for extra foam.
- Once boiled, take the milk off the heat. Discard the tea leaves. Add honey to the tea and stir.
- Pour the milk and foam over the tea. Sprinkle on dried lavender buds. Serve right away and enjoy!
