Notes
Tasting Notes
When I take my first sip of the Lavender Earl Grey Fizz Mocktail, there’s a gentle floral aroma—lavender, but not too much. It works with the bergamot from the Earl Grey tea.
On my tongue, the drink feels light and bubbly. The fizz adds a refreshing touch, and I taste a balance of sweet and tart, with a hint of earthiness from the tea.
The lavender adds a calming touch, and the Earl Grey brings a mild citrus taste. The sparkling water really lifts the flavors and makes the mocktail feel lively.
I find the drink isn’t too sweet. If I want it sweeter, I just add a bit more simple syrup—easy fix. The overall flavor is balanced and honestly easy to enjoy.
