Step 1

Place the tea bag in a mug and add the lavender if using. Let steep for 5 minutes. Remove the tea bag or, if you added lavender, pour the tea through a strainer then back into your mug.

Step 2

Stir in the honey and vanilla, adjusting both if you like for more or less sweetness or vanilla flavor.

Step 3

While the tea steeps, heat your milk. I use an electric frother, but you can also heat it on your stovetop until steaming but not boiling, stirring frequently. Froth with a hand-frother if using.

Step 4

Pour warmed milk into tea mixture and stir to combine. Spoon any froth over the top and serve.
