Stephanie’s Note: Why I Love a Lavender London Fog

As I curl up by the fire, sip my Earl Grey tea latte, and look at the calendar turning to March in days, even though snow is topping nearby rooftops, I know that spring isn’t far away.

I love a London Fog on chilly, misty Seattle days. In fact, the very first London Fog originated just to my north in British Columbia. If you haven’t tried one, you’re in for a treat! I use this London Fog recipe to make them at home.

But when March is knocking on the door and thoughts of St. Patrick’s Day are near, hints of floral, flowery flavors are welcome.

If you love lavender flavors, take a look at my Lavender Tea Bread, perfect for this time of the year.

And speaking of St. Patrick’s Day, you may also enjoy making Irish Coffee or seeing my Irish Breakfast Tea brewing guide. Maybe an Irish scone or two as well?

But back to lavender and warm tea and cozy days in March.

Are you ready to join me in making a frothy spring-ish treat you’ll absolutely love?

Lavender London Fog Ingredients

This London Fog is a warm tea beverage in which Earl Grey tea is steeped with dried culinary lavender and sweetened with a hint of honey. Topped with frothed milk or cream, it’s an effortless treat to make in minutes.

Here’s all you need to make your own… anytime!

  • Earl Grey Tea: The notes of bergamot oil in Earl Grey perfectly complement the bright floral lavender flavors. Both loose tea and tea sachets work in this recipe.
  • Dried Culinary Lavender Flowers: Be sure to use dried lavender for culinary use.
  • Honey: I enjoy the flavor of honey in this latte, but you could also substitute your favored sweetener, like granulated sugar, if you prefer. Sweetness helps bring the floral lavender flavor forward. I highly recommend adding it!
  • Frothed Milk: Whole milk, half-and-half, cream, or your favorite milk works here. A higher fat content in the milk is easier to froth. In fact, if you’re using half and half, you can froth with a whisk (although I still use my handheld milk frother because it’s SO quick!).

Let’s make a tea latte!
