Too hot for Earl Grey? Nope!

I love Earl Grey tea. Even in the summer, I love it but it has been extremely hot the last two days. So hot that even after a shower, 6 am is HOT. So hot that you can feel the heat underlying & undermining the air conditioner. So a cuppa tea has not been an option.


Well on my walk yesterday, I passed one of the many gourmet food trucks that have appeared in NYC recently... this one, an organic ice cream truck. Lo & behold, one of the flavor options was EARL GREY!! Yay, music to my mouth... cold, refreshing, delicious. Hmmm, I thought, I can make it at home! And make it the way I love to have it... with "milk" & honey. I also brought out the citrusy bergamot always at the heart of the Earl Grey flavoring with a splash of fresh lemon juice. 


This was the perfect cup of summer tea. And the perfect ice cream. The perfect ~ dessert. Perfection. Sigh.


Earl Grey Ice Cream

  • 1 cup Earl Grey (*preparation below)
  • 1-2 TBSp Honey
  • 1 TBSp fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/3 cup Sugar

*Earl Grey prep~ I made mine in the Keurig/K-cup on the most concentrated setting. Or you can use 2-3 tea bags steeped in 8 oz. hot water for 5 minutes.


Prepare the Earl Grey tea. Mix in the honey & lemon juice. Allow tea to cool to room temperature. Meanwhile, pour the cream into the ice cream maker. Slowly add the sugar. Allow to mix for 10 minutes, then add the cooled down tea. Keep ice cream maker on for another 20 minutes (or until softly frozen, then place in the freezer.


Serve & ENJOY! Makes 2 large servings or 4 small servings.


I always find a way to make what I love most!
Inspiration's everywhere.

  1. After all, "The laptop uses 299 Swarovski crystals to depict four hearts and the bubbly feline head wearing a pink bow and crown. Place more than boiling drinking water on a minimal warmth. There are actually more affordable styles with cast iron plates but I recommend you not buy them, mainly because Teflon surfaces are just that much easier to clean.

  6. Keep an open mind and have fun with these intense training sessions.
    It even takes a thirty day period or so to have great abs, but that
    can only be attained if you are fully dedicated in it.

    If you happen to end up having a rather busy working day with group meetings and so on, and can
    only fit a couple of these 2-minute exercise sessions in, then so
    be it, but be sure to get lots of carried out every
    single day as you can.

    model series in the market today.

    settings. Manual resistance is a great supplement but requires a competent trainer or partner well
    acquainted in the practice. Don't set goals like "I will miss Ten pounds inside my first week".

    out commercial quality soft serve ice cream.

  21. Surrounding the crystal was a bright sphere of Divine golden light.

    So you won't have to stumble around in the middle of the night to turn up or down the heater. On a $200 a month gas bill, this would lower the bill by $50.
