Serving Size 2

Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1½ tablespoons loose earl grey tea
  • ½ teaspoon dried culinary lavender flower buds (more for garnish if desired)
  • ¾ teaspoon honey or sugar
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup 2% or whole milk

Instructions

  • Place earl grey tea and lavender flower buds in tea strainer over small glass measuring cup or tea pot. 
  • Bring 1 cup of water just to a boil and pour over strainer. Steep for about 7 minutes. Remove strainer and stir in honey and vanilla. Divide evenly between 2 mugs.
  • Meanwhile, add milk to the Milk Cafe fitted with latte disk. Set to desired temperature (around 150°F) and press start.
  • Pour hot and creamy milk over each mug, reserving foam with a spoon until the end. Garnish with lavender flower buds (optional).

Notes

  • Almond or oat milk (barista style) can be used in place of milk but will change the flavour profile and consistency slightly.
  • Adjust honey or sugar to taste. Can be omitted completely.
  • Milk can be heated and frothed using a handheld version.
