how to make DELICIOUS London Fog Tea☕🍯Earl Grey Latte 

I was told by a friend who raises bees & sells honey that you should always use a wooden spoon when measuring honey. Metal degrades the enzymes and the wood helps keep the flavor of the honey pure.

I’m British and never heard of fog tea and neither had my family. Surprised so many in the comments know what it is. I’ve googled its Canadian. That explains why I’ve never heard of it.

Harney & Sons has a Victorian London Fog loose tea that's made up of black tea, oolong tea, lavender, and vanilla. I have a cup every morning. It's delish!

London fog lattes are my favorite. My recipe is similar to yours. I learned about water temperature from a tea shop in NYC. I burned my green tea because I poured boiling water. I had no idea green tea is better at 185 degrees. I will definitely try it with ice cubes next time. Your idea about filling an ice cube tray with London fog tea is clever! I love your channel since we have a lot in common. Teas, journals and handbags!

Earl Gray has bergamot in it.

Something that might be similar to this is Twinings Lady Grey looseleaf tea. I love their tea with half-and-half or brewed directly in almond milk. Either way, any black tea with milk and sweetener is a million times better than coffee to me. If you can only find the teabags, I think it's still delicious, but it's definitely better made with the looseleaf.

I make something similar with Stash Breakfast In Paris loose leaf tea. It’s basically black tea with the lavender and spices already in it. It also makes great cold-brew tea.

Harney and Sons is the BEST Earl Grey, and amazingly, the decaf version is just as good! Can't wait to try this!

Harney's Earl Grey Supreme is the best! It has more bergamot than most other Earl Greys, more even than Harney's other variations.

yaaaass! I discovered London Fog tea recipe several years back. I grow my own lavender and harvest it, dry and keep it in a bag for us in my tea‼️ I usually use vanilla creamer and add extra vanilla but I think I’ll try the oat milk. So glad you love it too🎉

I love a London fog cause I’m a milk tea lover. and Earl grey hot or iced tea and lady grey are my favorites . But I don’t do lavender or vanilla personally. Vanilla can be ok but it’s often too much to me and takes away from the tea flavor. Cute cup!!

This video is my cup of tea 😆I couldn’t resist the pun. I can’t wait to try this out. Thank you!

I use Twinings Irish Breakfast tea bags. I don’t have time, usually, for a tea ritual. I prefer Barry’s Gold Irish Breakfast but the bags are not individually packed in foil. I enjoy loose leaf black tea but don’t have time to make it. Good fresh water makes a difference just off the boil. I think less than 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, the right cup. My favorite is an old diner cup. It has thick walls and a perfect shape for my lips and my hands. I often hold my cup in both hands to warm them up. Sometimes, as a treat, I add whole milk and honey.

I did a twist on this since I did not have Earl Grey. I made this with Yerba Mate which has a bit more caffeine for that afternoon pick me up. I used half and half heated it up with brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. I could of used orange honey 🍯. I did not realize I had this until after I made it. Thank you. So much better than afternoon coffee. 👍

Love the Moomin mugs! ❤️

I have a bag of Harney and son Rose scented tea, I think I’ll try this!

Interresting. I did not know that Earl Grey can be enjoyed this way.

I have an assortment of the exact cup you're using (colors of spring, fall and Christmas) and I LOVE them! 💕 (BTW, my favorite tea is Prince of Wales)

Fun video! I’ve never heard of London Fog, but it sounds delicious. I’m a huge fan of Lapsang Souchong.

Love this so much! Thank you for showing us exactly!

Thank you! Now I know once upon a time I purchase a milk tea and it gave me the lavender smell. I know the reason now.😅

i def have to try this. Thanks so much for posting with links!💙

London fog teas are my favorite!!!

I made this minus the honey and it was delicious

Great video. Thanks for sharing. ❤

I also use the Tazo mix when i go to work. I also love my London Fog from Starbucks

love this! I never knew about the tea temperature, please do more of this with different teas. thanks.

I love london fog ❤ its so delicious 😋 Thank you for this very nice video!

Thank you for sharing this!! Gonna give it a try.

Thanks for the recipe, it sounds delish. I’m currently on a green tea latte phase but hope to try this soon.

Omgg thank you sm for the recipe

This looks great and easy to follow. Thanks for sharing!

This sounds AMAZING! 🤩

Loved the idea! Will try to prepare or try at a gourmet or specialized café!

Thanks for sharing your London Fog recipe.😊

Thanks! Also, your Trader Joe's bag is cute! I wish ours would have cute offerings like that! I'm going to make this, but I have to use half-n-half as I can't have grains. Looking forward to trying it!!

I will try this london fog tea. Thank you.

I like my tea plain sometimes a dash of cream. Mostly, just straight up ❤

Where is your cute gold bracelet from that looks like it has gold drop shapes on them? 😍

I am a tea fanatic! This looks so good! I have a local tea shop near me that I adore and I am a regular at. They have beautiful tea blends that they make themselves. They have an earl grey with blue cornflowers and an earl grey with turkish rose petals. I dont think they have an earl grey with lavender. I think I will email them tomorrow and ask if they can make a blend with earl grey, lavender, and vanilla. BTW, do you steep your leaves multiple times? When you use a good quality loose leaf you can steep more than once. The flavour will change slightly the more you steep, but it is good to steep multiple times and savour the different flavour profiles that emerge each time. The only thing to avoid is steeping the same leaves on a different day. In eastern philosophy they say that the "energy" of the tea changes overnight and so you should not drink leaves that were steeped the previous day, you should throw them out. Also a note on temperatures: Black teas (such as earl grey) and puh erh with water at boiling point. Oolong and white teas slightly lower at 85°C/185°F Green teas at 70°C-80°C/ 158°F - 176°F

My fav earl greys are: in loose leaf form is the aged earl grey Numi brand, they sell on Amazon and are organic plus have real bergamot leaves in it. The tea bags version that I love is the Bigelow! I love earl greys with milk but haven’t tried making my own London fog yet, I didn’t know what ratio of lavender or vanilla to do. I’ll definitely try this (probably without the oatly though)!! Thank you for the recipe!

Love your mugs. Especially the pink Moomin. 😊

Harney & Sons has a Victorian London Fog that has all of these ingredients in a loose leaf blend. It's been a favorite of mine for years; highly recommend!

Im definitely trying this. Look so good.

I love London fog using Earl Grey tea the real McCoy with bergamot and real vanilla but only English lavender or vanilla. French lavender makes is taste like eucalyptus…. Like having Vicks Vapor rub .

Where did you purchase the diffuser ? Those are nice

I smiled when I saw your Moominland cup!🎉🎉🎉

Heaped is the term.😊 Sounds delicious.

I have started buying from adiago teas. I am liking them better then harney they even make a Earl grey with lavender

I like frothing milk when I make London Fog.

🌀🌀💛💛Thanks for sharing this recipe--Earl Grey is my favorite black tea, with milk or Creme even more so (dairy or non-dairy)-- As for lavender, I have acquired a taste for it 🙌.--I will try this new recipe. Sounds like dessert. 🤗✔️

Bought the stuff for it. Thank you. I needed this video after a downer evening

Can you let me know how much for a small 8 oz. cup to use regarding Earl Tea and lavender, milk?

You can add more bergamot food grade essential oil to your earl gray loose leaves.

If you need airtight containers for your teas, sugar, or coffee beans, I find that ikea is the best place to buy those. Many different sizes and super cheap. And I agree about Starbucks. They are hit or miss with their london fog and their chai. Mostly miss though. Even their coffee. Everything is so bitter without a ton of sugars and syrup. The iced passion tango and green tea is usually pretty good though.

3:45 You probably already know this but you can put a glass honey jar in a saucepan with hot boiling water (remove lid obviously) and it will de-crystalize and turn back into liquid honey.

Where is that gorgeous mug from?? (The blue drawing of the bird)

I’ve never heard of “London Fog” tea. I call Earl Grey Tea the “cilantro of teas”. It must be the bergamot in it. It tastes like perfume to me (cilantro tastes like soap to me). I tend to not like flavored teas. I like English Breakfast and Darjeeling but my current favorite tea is Ceylon tea. Ceylon tea tastes (to me) a bit like Darjeeling but with more of a robust flavor. It’s quite delightful.

I even don’t like drink tea. Why am i watching this video 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you so much! Such a wonderful video. Also, Your bracelets are beautiful. Where did you get them?

💚Thanks for sharing ☕️

I like your video so much!!!

Anyone have a good, easy chai latte recipe? Thank you❤

😊Thank YOU!!! ❤

I love london fogs! I'm assuming it's not as widely available in the states? I've actually never looked into making it but I should try! Thanks for sharing your findings :)

❤ 👌 from 🇦🇪

Saved recipe!

Yum

Moomin ❤❤❤

This is an improvement on the last video BUT no one in London ever makes tea like this!

I’d like to buy an Organic Earl Gray. Can you or someone in the comments suggest a good brand? Thx!

Literally took down a mug to make a cup of tea, and while water was coming to a boil, looked to see what was newly uploaded. There you are making tea in the same mug I am. LOL I've never had lavender in tea. I'll have to see if I can find some that has gluten free labeled on it because the one you listed doesn't. Too bad. Actually, I planted some lavender this summer so maybe next year I can use that. Loose leaf tea is so much better! I haven't used it in a while though. I'm going to get that infuser you listed. I don't consume dairy so I use alternative as well, though most of the time I don't, only because lately I'm trying not to have stuff with seed oil in it and I think a lot of creamers do. I like the oatly barista but my favorite is califia French vanilla...though I can't say I've tried many brands/flavors at all. Thanks for sharing!

Stop with the tea: you have a MOOMIN cup!! Little My and her RBF is my spirit recipe!!❤️

Oatly 👍

Lavender flower...just for those who dont know...

I can't help it I'm British, tea comes from a teapot and is steaming hot

❤👍🏼

Please store your loose tea in non see through container to preserve the flavour

The smell of lavender makes me irrationally angry. Sounds lovely but I cannot do it.

This sounds good but to be a latte the milk needs to be heated & frothed.

As a native Brit, what on earth are you talking about - London Fog? It just isn't a thing. Earl Grey, yes, lovely, one of my favourites. Personally I can't stand any milk in tea, but if you want to add a splash then so be it, but many would add a slice of lemon to Earl Grey tea, but London Fog - no, that's just not a thing. Keep trying.

Is this just an Earl Grey? I’m assuming London fog is the American name?

It's not English tea
