I always wondered how does London Fog tastes like with chocolate. In case you didn't know, london fog is steamed milk with vanilla and tea. Kinda like a tea latte. So, adding chocolate will be like a tea mocha? Lol!

The end result isn't what I would expect: warmth, cozy and earthy aromatic. I seriously tot it will be a bad idea. But I guess I was wrong, so wrong. I topped my London Fog Hot Chocolate with some whipped cream and freshly grated dark chocolate. You can of cos use any toppings as desired; marshmallows will be awesome too. Cheers!

Bring it up to a simmer and remove from heat.
Add in earl grey tea bags, cover and steep for 10 mins.
Remove the tea bags and bring the heat up to medium-low.
*Do not be tempted to squeeze the tea bags as it will leave a bitter taste.*
Add in the chocolate.
Stir to combine well and until the chocolate has completely melted.
Pour the hot chocolate into serving cups.
Add 100g of heavy whipping cream to a large bowl.
Whip until stiff peaks form with a hand or stand mixer.
