London Fog
London fog (also known as Vanilla Tea Misto or an Earl Grey Tea Latte) is the name of a drink which originated in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, although the creator remains unknown, among several claims. One such claim is from Buckwheat Cafe on 4th Avenue in Vancouver (now closed) when in December 1996 a regular customer, Mary Loria, who was pregnant and couldn't drink coffee asked for an alternative. Another is from the Island Coffeehouse in Langley, Washington, a non-profit student run organization, where it was originally made with Peppermint Tea in 2006.
