Method
 

  1. Heat 6 ounces of water in a kettle or pot until it reaches a rolling boil.
  2. Pour a small amount of the hot water into your mug, let sit for 20 seconds, then discard to warm the mug.
  3. Place the Earl Grey tea bag or loose leaf tea in the warmed mug and pour the boiling water over it; steep for 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. While the tea steeps, warm 4 ounces of milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming but not boiling.
  5. Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla syrup to the warm milk and stir until fully combined.
  6. Remove the tea bag or strain out the loose leaves, pressing gently against the mug rim to extract flavor.
