A soothing, hot cup of Earl Grey with lavender, cream, and organic maple syrup.
London fog with maple cream
Earl Grey is traditionally a black tea flavored with oil of Bergamot, which gives it a distinctively fruity aroma. It is one of the most popular tea choices among tea drinkers- right up there with Chai and Green tea, another two of my favorites as well. This London fog with maple cream is meant to be brewed strong and enjoyed slowly.
So Simple it’s barely a recipe
I hate to even call this a recipe it’s so simple, but these three magical ingredients combine to make one of my absolute favorite hot drinks. Traditionally, I think you’re supposed to add frothed milk to the tea. But I don’t own a milk frother and I really prefer the richness of thick, buttery cream. So that’s how I like to make this hot treat.
I like to easily “whip” my cream for hot drinks by shaking it in a small mason jar for a minute or two. It works perfectly and involves very little clean up. Also, you can store the extra for a second drink later!

You need to make me a cup sometime! Sounds good🥰
Um. Yum. When are you going to open your own cafe so I can come eat and drink all your yummy stuff? 😜
A cup of happiness
This sounds delicious! Where does the lavender come in? Is it the type of tea?
Kathy, yes! I use Tazo, but there are a lot of different brands that contain lavender. It goes so well with the traditional bergamot flavor!
