Earl Grey Whipped Cream
teas.co.uk · 5 min + 2 hr infuse · Serves 6
You'll need
- 300ml cold double or whipping cream
- 2 Tetley Earl Grey tea bags
- 1 to 2 tablespoons icing sugar, to taste
- Half a teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
Method
- Put the cold cream and the 2 Earl Grey bags in a bowl, cover and chill 2 hours, or overnight. Cold infusing draws out the bergamot without any bitterness.
- Lift out the bags and gently squeeze them against the side so the soaked cream goes back into the bowl.
- Add the icing sugar and vanilla.
- Whip with a balloon whisk or electric beaters to soft peaks. Stop as soon as it holds its shape; cream firms up further as it stands and over whipped cream turns grainy.
- Use straightaway, or keep covered in the fridge and give it a quick whisk before serving.
