UUUUMMMMMMMM!!! This sounds great! Think I might be out of Earl Gray, but I'd even make a special trip to get some. Now, where do you get vanilla syrup?

Here's a tip for all who want to make this but don't have a steamer: Get one of those tiny battery powered frothers. Can't remember where I got mine, but they do a great job, they're cheap, and they're easier than a blender.

Vanilla syrup is usually in the supermarket coffee section.
........Can also use droplets of vanilla extract.

Those frothers are nice.......I have one.

But I’m guessing everyone has a blender......which does a great froth.
