London Fog (From Scratch) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups water
2 Earl Grey teabags
1 cup milk
4 tablespoons vanilla-flavored syrup
Homemade Vanilla-Flavored Syrup
1 cup water
1 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Preparation

To make syrup: Bring water and sugar to boil over medium-high heat, stirring often. Simmer 10 minutes on medium-low heat. Remove from heat and add vanilla. Cool to room temperature. (It is also fine if it is still warm when you use it) Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Boil 2 cups water and steep Earl Grey teabags for 3 minutes (or longer for a very strong flavour) in teapot.
While tea is steeping, heat milk on medium-high heat, whisking often, until quite frothy (takes about 3 minutes).
Spoon 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup into each mug.
Pour 1 cup tea and 1/2 cup frothy milk into each mug.
Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, if desired. Enjoy!
