Of Oats and Earls

I love Earl Grey tea. This black tea flavored with oil of bergamot, a type of orange, is my go to hot beverage most mornings. Truthfully, I’m really quite smitten. I bet those of you who are fans of The Earl, understand me completely!

Besides brewing it in the early hours, I sometimes enjoy a cup in the afternoon with a little treat. Lately, I have been adding in a splash of oat milk. This deliciously creamy dairy alternative has a bit of sweetness to it. Care to join me for a sip?
