Per Alicia’s suggestion and an enjoyable one at the B&N yesterday, I decided to try to make a London Fog with A&D’s Earl Grey tonight after a yummy dinner of Indian food. I knew it was late but it sounded good and seemed like it would go good after Indian.
I made the Earl Grey as I normally would and added heated milk, vanilla extract, and sugar. I didn’t think it tasted right at first. I could taste everything, but it was off. Too little Earl Grey, too much milk. As it cooled, it got better. I think next time I could steep the tea much stronger and use less milk. But I liked it and there will be a next time.
1 cup Earl Grey tea, 1/4 cup heated milk, 1/8 tsp vanilla extract, 1 rounded tsp sugar.
Told you! hee-hee.
Wow, a cup of tea? (Did I read that right?)
I don’t think loose tea was meant in this case. :)
Whew! That would have been a lot of tea! Lol.
Alicia ~ It was a good call. =)
Morgana ~ Yeah, 1 cup of steeped Earl Grey tea (from 1 tsp leaves in 1 cup of 205° F water for 5 min). NOT 1 cup of leaves.
