When it’s too hot to have hot tea in the morning, I put all the flavors of a London Fog—vanilla, Earl Grey tea and nondairy milk with the extra special addition of lavender—into a refreshing frozen ice pop. —KH
MAKES 6 MEDIUM POPS
2 cups (480 ml) nondairy unsweetened vanilla milk
1 tsp dried culinary lavender
1½ tsp (6 g) Earl Grey tea
½ tsp vanilla extract (use 1 tsp if you use plain nondairy milk)
¼ cup (56 g) vegan sugar (or sweetener of choice, to taste)
Put the nondairy milk and lavender into a saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat until the milk starts to rise and almost comes to a boil.
Take it off the heat and stir in the tea, vanilla and sugar. Set a timer for 4 minutes. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
When the timer goes off, pour the mixture through a strainer into a bowl or large measuring cup with a pour spout.
Pour into freezer pop molds. Freeze for at least 5 hours to overnight to make them hard enough to unmold. These will keep for at least a month.
