London Fog (My Low-Cost, Low-Fat Version) image

The London Fog is a popular cafe tea made with Earl Grey Tea, steamed & frothed milk and vanilla syrup. I have neither the time nor the money to get all fancy but I love the taste, so I came up with this and a friend requested I post it. I steep my tea by the pot (in my coffee maker), but I'll break it down to one cup. Feel free to post comments. I have switched this recipe to skim milk but I have made it with skim milk powder. Most people don't care for powder but I live in the middle of nowhere and sometimes I run out of fresh and that's where the original recipe was created one day when I really needed a nice comfort bevvie on a cold winter day and if I add just enough vanilla & honey it helps to cut the taste of the powder :-) Blessings ♥
