by | Read time: 1 minute

You can’t do anything about the weather. It could be your wedding day or the day you finally have the guts to take on Mt. Everest. But Mother Nature isn’t keeping track. So if you wake up to a dense coat of fog, do what any savvy Londoner would do – snuggle up to it! London fog tea is a frothy drink that will make any forecast feel warm and bright. And if it’s any consolation, this recipe calls for crystallized honey sea salt to prove nature does, in fact, have a sweet side.
