Healthy London Fog Latte Recipe

In regular coffee shops, the London Fog Latte is usually made with sweetened Earl Grey tea, vanilla syrup and cow’s milk.

So, of course, I wanted to see if I could make an at-home version that involved less sugar (or none at all!), additional botanical flavor, and plant based milk.

This Healthy London Fog Latte is a creamy, frothy concoction with a hint of sweetness, and a pleasing bergamot-lavender scent.

Serves 1

Ingredients

  • 2 tea bags: regular or decaf Earl Grey tea
  • 1/2 teaspoon culinary (food grade) lavender
  • 4 ounces plant-based milk, unsweetened
  • 1 teaspoon coconut butter (coconut purée, not coconut oil)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A few drops of liquid stevia, to taste
  • OPTIONAL: 1 drop food grade bergamot essential oil (i.e, DOterra brand)

Directions

  • Step 1

    Brew earl grey tea and lavender together in 8 ounces of hot water, and steep for 3 minutes (or according to tea instructions). In the meantime, heat the plant milk gently in a small pot.

    After 3 minutes, remove tea bags and strain out the lavender.

  • Step 2

    Add the brewed tea, warmed plant milk, coconut butter, vanilla, and bergamot oil (if using) to the blender. Add 2-3 drops of stevia (you can always add more later). Blend until smooth and frothy.

  • Step 3

    Taste and add more stevia if desired. Pour into a mug and enjoy.
