London Fog Latte ( Earl Grey latte )
I have to be honest with you guys. I never tried a London Fog Latte ( Earl Grey latte ) until this year. As many of you know, I love lattes, and I look forward to trying new ones, with Chai lattes being one of my favorite. It wasn't until I was on my blogger friends Katrina Instagram feed that I decided to learn more about it. If you know me, when I'm excited about something, I want to try it immediately or at least as soon as I can. Thankfully I had earl grey on hand and decided to give it a try. I was so pleased with the flavor combination. I can't even describe what it tastes like. However, I will say that it's now one of my favorites.
This recipe is super simple to make on hand, I use Earl Grey Tea bags and I typically will make the recipe on a whim, not much prep work required. I've gotten to the point where I don't even have to measure the ingredients anymore for my lattes, and I will say that I'm becoming pretty accurate. I hope the next time that I made that latte, I'll have vanilla sugar on hand to garnish it with.
Are you a latte fan?

This looks delicious! I enjoy sipping on drinks like this when it's cold out. I might have to make this one morning.
ReplyDeleteIt is always perfect way to start off ones day with a nice warm drink. Cupping our hands around a warm mug. This is perfect.

ReplyDeleteI love drinking tea now and I was wondering what grey teas were like. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI am not much of a Coffee Drinker but I know my husband would enjoy this new drink. I plan on making it for him the next time he is off from work.
ReplyDeleteThat tea looks so soothing and making me rethink my love of coffee in the morning. It is great how it has the froth that all great shops have.
ReplyDeleteI've never had a latte made with tea. This sounds interesting. I'll have to try it
ReplyDeleteThis sounds absolutely amazing! I have never tried a latte as a tea but I think it would be absolutely amazing. I do throw milk in my tea all the time.

ReplyDeleteI'd like to see how you get such great foam! I am working on this at home, as it is a goal to make great coffee drinks for myself.
ReplyDeleteThis looks super good! I'm a big fan of lattes, and I never would have thought to create something like this with Earl Grey tea. Seems like a no-brainer!

ReplyDeleteYUM! I love London Fog Lattes. I have ordered them from Starbucks (they sell them there) but I have also made my own versions too! So delicious!
ReplyDeleteThe weather up here in Alaska has gotten chilly. I love latte and never knew it is so easy to make!
ReplyDeleteI am a pretty boring "coffee/tea" drinker. I do basic coffee (flavored if I'm fancy!) but this looks TOO good to pass up. And easy to prep, too! Cheers
