FAQs
What variations of Earl Grey tea does Rishi Tea & Botanicals offer?
Apart from the classic Earl Grey organic black tea, lovers of this blend will relish the luxurious flavor of caramel smooth Dianhong black tea from China’s Yunnan province with a touch of bergamot in the Earl Grey Supreme blend. Its use of a Chinese black tea will remind you of the Earl Grey tea origin story and makes for a great talking point, even if it’s just a legend.
Or there’s the Oolong version of the classic black tea blend, Earl Green. For added floral notes to the citrusy bergamot of traditional Earl Grey, you can also try the Earl Grey Lavender blend.
Meanwhile, the bold flavor of our London Fog concentrate comes from full-bodied black teas sourced from Southeast Asian jungles infused with real bergamot juice from Calabria, Italy.
How do I make Earl Grey tea from loose tea leaves?
Place about 1.5 tablespoons of loose leaf tea in a tea bag or using our Simple Brew teapot. Boil 12 oz water to 200ºF before adding the tea. Steep for about 4 minutes before serving.
How do I make an Earl Grey tea latte from Rishi Tea & Botanicals’ London Fog tea concentrate?
Shake the London Fog TetraPak well, then measure equal parts concentrate and milk or milk alternative of your choice. Combine and mix well.
For a hot tea latte, steam in a milk steamer or heat on your stove. Pour the mix into a mug and serve immediately.
For an iced London Fog latte, simply pour into a glass filled with ice and serve.
What pairs well with Earl Grey tea?
Although Earl Grey tea is delicious on its own, many tea lovers enjoy adding a touch of honey or milk to the cup. Great food pairings include lavender scones or other delicately sweet pastries, especially those that feature floral or citrus flavors. You can even call back to Earl Grey tea origins and pair it with Chinese pastries like cream buns or walnut cookies.
