Lavender Milk Tea
Report
Lavender Milk Tea blends milk heated gently with honey and lavender buds, infused with black or Earl Grey tea for floral and earthy notes. The drink has a creamy texture with subtle floral undertones balanced by the tea’s robustness. Optional mint adds freshness, making it a soothing warm beverage.
Description
The recipe starts by scalding milk with honey and dried lavender buds until just heated without boiling, preserving milk's smooth taste and extracting delicate lavender flavor. After steeping the lavender, black or Earl Grey tea and optional fresh mint are added and steeped briefly to develop an aromatic brew. Straining removes solids, leaving a fragrant, creamy tea.
This tea can be served as a comforting drink at any time of day with or without the optional frothy milk reserved to create a latte effect. The lavender and mint offer floral and herbal accents to the traditional black tea base.
