Treacle Sponge tea latte

Learn how to make our in-store special, the delicious Treacle Sponge tea latte! It's made with our limited edition autumn blend, Treacle Sponge (and yes, it really is as tasty as it sounds).

This yummy latte was created by our talented Tunbridge Wells Teabird, Zac!

• 2 Perfect Tea Spoons of Treacle Sponge 
• A milk of your choice (we have found that dairy works best for this recipe)
• Half of a Perfect Tea Spoon of honey 
• Half of a Perfect Tea Spoon of vanilla extract
• Latte Milk Frother
• A mug

1. First, you need to get 2 Perfect Tea Spoons of your Treacle Sponge tea and brew for 3 minutes in 80-degree water. You should definitely use our handy Brewdini, as it is the easiest way to brew any loose leaf tea! 

2. When the tea has brewed, pour it into your mug, ensuring you leave enough room for your milk! Now add half a Perfect Tea Spoon of honey and vanilla essence to the tea and give it a nice stir. Then set your mug aside for a minute.

3. The next step is frothing your milk to turn your tea into a latte! There are two ways in which you can do this:

a) Pour 100ml of milk into one of our Latte Milk Shakers, give it a good shake and then pour it on top of your tea. This is the fastest way to froth your milk in seconds! You can see this in the video down below.

b) Heat 100ml of milk very gently over the hob and then use a latte whisk to froth your milk until you get a frothy consistency. Once this is done, pour it over your tea!

4. You can now give your latte a good stir and sprinkle it with nutmeg (if you want- this part is optional)

5. Enjoy!

Our Brewdini gravity steepers are perfect for making iced teas without any mess- or if you want to leave your tea overnight to steep, you can experiment with a Cold Brew Bottle.
