Starbucks London Fog
Description
This London Fog recipe involves brewing Earl Grey tea bags in boiling water for several minutes to extract the distinct bergamot aroma and flavor. While the tea steeps, milk is heated and frothed until creamy foam develops. The vanilla syrup is added to the brewed tea for sweetness and warmth.
The frothed milk is poured over the sweetened tea, with foam spooned on top. The combination produces a drink with the floral citrus notes of the Earl Grey balanced by soft vanilla and creamy texture from the milk foam.
An alternative frothing method involves shaking heated milk in a jar to create foam, though a milk frother is preferred for best results.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 2 earl grey tea tea bags
- 1 cup milk 2%
- 1 ounce Vanilla Syrup
Instructions
- Bring the water to a boil. When the water is boiling, pour it into a large mug.
- Add the tea bags and steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the tea bags.
- Meanwhile, heat the milk in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- When the milk is hot, froth it using a milk frother.
- Pour the vanilla syrup into the tea, and stir.
- Pour the frothed milk into the tea and spoon any remaining milk froth on top.
Notes
- If you don’t have a milk frother, you can heat milk in a jar with a lid and shake vigorously to create foam, though this method is less consistent.
