About

London Fog is a warm cloud of comfort when the afternoon feels heavy and the doldrums begin to set in. This brew is a frothy, foamy, and sweet take on black tea. The fruity notes of the bergamot in the tea are enhanced by the sugar and the vanilla, made all the creamier with the milk. London Fog is as enchanting as watching fog roll over a lake from the comfort of a warm living room.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tablespoon Earl Grey tea, loose leaf or bagged
