London Fog Latte

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve enjoyed my hot tea “light and sweet”. Who knew I was drinking a designer beverage my whole life? Here my standard recipe is dressed up a bit with frothed milk and a touch of vanilla. Some versions dress it up even more by including a few dried lavender buds. Either way, it’s a perfect afternoon treat.

Notes

• Feel free to use your favorite dairy or nondairy milk.

• Use hot or cold milk - your choice.

• If you don’t have a milk brother, you can use a personal blender, immersion blender, or shake in a jar with a tight fitting lid for 30-60 seconds (being sure there’s a lot of air in the jar).

• Vanilla syrup can be used in place of the vanilla extract and sweetener of choice.

• Earl Grey tea is traditional, but English Breakfast is another favorite of mine. Use whatever tea you love.
