This has arrived!
I steeped this up at 3 minutes because the tin said 5, and I told myself that I couldn’t possibly steep it for 5 minutes. I mean, why would 5 minutes even be necessary? Well, 3 minutes wasn’t quite enough. XD But I do think 4 minutes might be the sweet spot.
I put a little bit of simple syrup and frothed almond milk in here and it’s quite tasty. I don’t know why I’m craving these Earl Grey lattes, but I’ll just enjoy it while it lasts!
It is helping my productivity, at least. I’ve got a paper outline and I’m officially started in on the first section. What a Friday!

I love London Fogs too, but I never seem to make them… I have the vanilla syrup and everything!
I have always had my tea without anything in them until about 2 weeks ago! Now I can’t seem to get enough! I’m super lazy about how I make them, but they taste good and that’s what counts.
I can definitely understand the craving as the weather gets colder. I’ve been hitting the cocoa pretty hard lately! :P
Exactlyyyy! Is it cold where you are?
No, LOL! I’m in Austin, TX. We did have a few days of around 7° C a week or two ago, but generally it’s more like 24-25° C… XD
Hahah, well 7° C is cool enough! I wish it was regularly in the 20’s here!
Honestly I was so sad when the temperature went back up. I’m ready for cooler weather and cozy sweaters and boots!
That’s fair — cozy sweaters are so nice! Summer and fall are my favs. Winter I could do without. XD
So glad this tea helped your productivity! I am so curious to try Harney & Sons. I keep hearing wondering things about them.
I really enjoy H&S. I used to have a lot more of their teas, but that was when it was more accessible to travel to the US and pick them up! I’ve been looking at ordering again! You can also find them a few other places for sale too!
Honestly I should try more teas from Harney, they have nice little sample sizes available for most things!
They do! I was on their website just last week haha. I should really make a list of the companies I want to order from so I don’t lose the run of myself.
I’ve started kind of doing that, mostly because Black Friday and Cyber Monday will be coming this month and maybe there will be good sales at some places. :P
I am the worst for forgetting about Black Friday/Cyber Monday haha. But the Teavivre was a good idea — I think it was ashmanra that mentioned I should wait for that one. I’m not sure where else I absolutely need to order from right now. I was looking at a couple teahouses in BC last night. We are contemplating picking up a TV for Black Friday this year, so that may be most of the budget. :)
I’ve been wanting to order some Holiday teas from Simpson & Vail since they don’t seem to offer an advent this year, so I’m hoping they may take part. :)
Oooh, good idea. I have my entire cart set for them, and I’ve already emailed them about different shipping options to Canada. Maybe if they take part, the price will be right!
S&V usually has a spend $50, get $10 off the first week in November, but they didn’t have it this year. For Black Friday, I think they usually decrease the free shipping barrier to $35 and that’s it.
