Lady Grey a la Creme Black Tea "London Fog"
Ingredients
- 10 ounces filtered water
- 2 teaspoons Lady Grey a la Creme Black Tea, The Spice and Tea Exchange
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup whole milk, or half and half, see Notes
- Sweetener, to taste, see Notes
Instructions
- Bring the water up to a gentle boil, about 200 to 210 degrees F.
- Add the loose tea to a tea ball or other diffuser. Place the diffuser into the hot water and steep for 4 minutes.
- While the tea is steeping, heat the whole milk until hot, but not boiling. Using a hand-held frother or espresso machine’s wand, froth the milk. Be sure your cup or container has plenty of room for the foam to expand.
- After 4 minutes, remove the tea. Add any sweetener to the tea.
- Pour the frothed milk over the tea.
- Enjoy very warm!
Notes
Certain milks froth better than others. In a nutshell, whole milk, 2%, and half and half do well for frothing. They have a higher fat content than soy milk or other non-dairy “milks,” but not as much fat as heavy cream. The 3 listed are your best bet for nice froth. Source: Tasting Table.
The teaspoons are made by Inox Artisans.
