wiseGEEK: What is Lady Grey Tea?

Lady Grey tea, currently produced only by Twinings®, a 300-year-old tea company, differs slightly from Earl Grey tea. It is often mistakenly identified as being named after Lady Jane Grey, but was, in fact, named for Mary Elizabeth Grey, the wife of the second Earl Grey. Both family members had a tea named after them in the early 19th century by the Twinings Company. Both teas include oil of bergamot, but Lady Grey includes other citrus flavors and usually has a lighter taste.

Many people are familiar with Earl Grey tea, which is typically a mixture of black tea and oil of bergamot. Bergamot is a citrus fruit that is a cross between a lemon and orange. Depending upon brand, the bergamot flavor in Earl Grey tea can be very strong or very light.

The primary difference between Lady Grey tea and Earl Grey is that Twinings blends oil of bergamot more lightly with lemon and orange peel. Those who find the bergamot flavor nice but overpowering in Earl Grey tea may truly enjoy the gentler, lighter flavors of Lady Grey. It’s often thought of as an afternoon tea because of its more delicate flavor.

Another advantage to this tea is its quality. When oil of bergamot is used heavily, tea enthusiasts are quick to point out, it can mask the flavor of inferior tea leaves. With the lighter application, the tea used has to be of good quality, or it could taste bitter, oily or rancid. Fortunately, since Lady Grey Tea is a proprietary blend of the Twinings Company, leaf quality is high.

Not all tea drinkers, particularly in the US, are familiar with this particular type of tea, but it is increasingly being marketed, especially in tea bag form. Tea drinkers who prefer to use tea leaves should be able to find loose tea at online stores, if it's not available in local shops. Traditionally, the tea might be used as a light morning or afternoon tea. Some drink it with milk and sugar, while others prefer it straight, or with a small amount of sweetening. The light flavors of the tea can be overpowered if a great deal of milk is added. A small amount of sugar, or an accompanying lemon wedge, tends to accent the flavors nicely.

Lady Grey can also be used to make iced tea. Because of its pleasing citrus flavors, many people find it particularly refreshing during warm months, and it has an inherent sweet flavor that tends not to require much sugar. Since it is black tea, it does contain caffeine, though Twinings does make a decaffeinated form.

2) Twinings Lady Grey tea is probably the best, whether you are getting tea bags or Lady Grey loose tea. I also like that you can get caffeinated or decaf, depending on what you prefer.

1) I have actually seen several brands recently with some form of "Lady Grey" tea in Europe; at first I actually wondered if it was some sort of parody of Earl Grey. Knowing it is another legitimate type, though, makes me more interested in trying it.

Lady Grey Tea

Lady Grey Tea is a more delicate variation of Earl Grey tea, and is only sold by Twinings, an English marketer of tea.

If you are a fan of Earl Grey tea, this wonвЂ™t be an exception. A dazzling citrus flavour and an enchanting fragrance are the perfect combination after a long day at work.

Curious? Wondering how did Lady Grey get into your tea cup? Want to know how can you get the best out of this delicious black tea and enjoy its health benefits?

Let's take a sip of this tea.

Entering the World of Lady Grey Tea

People used to say that Earl Grey tea caused rather strange impulses on women, so Lady Grey tea was invented to ease womenвЂ™s minds and hearts. Tale or not, Twinings created this new blend in the 1990's to appeal to those who found Earl Grey too strong.

Just like Earl Grey Tea, which was named after Charles Grey, an English prime minister, Lady Grey tea was named after Mary Elizabeth Grey, CharlesвЂ™s wife.

This flavoured tea is a blend of black tea leaves, with an astonishing fragrant oil of bergamot. Now this is where Lady Grey differs from Earl Grey tea. To make it less strong and gentler, Seville orange and lemon peel are added.

The presence of bergamot oil is not that strong as in Earl Grey tea which means that the black tea leaves used to make this new blend have to be of very good quality.

Look inside your cup and behold that mahogany beautiful colour. Now inhale that fragrance. All of this is ready to offer you a world of pleasure and benefits. A world that will protect you and your loved ones!

Let's take a look at the benefits of this tea.

Have you tried Lady Grey Tea?

Drinking Lady Grey Tea

Now itвЂ™s time to have fun and learn how to make Lady Grey tea. Preparing tea is an art itself and you should enjoy every minute of it! You can do it alone and absorb that moment of relaxation or you can share this fantastic experience with your family and friends.

Call up some friends and introduce them to the world of tea. Lady Grey tea is a fantastic beginning! Teach them some interesting facts about tea and come up with funny tea party ideas to get them involved.

Time to go to the kitchen!

LetвЂ™s start by preheating your teapot to protect the temperature of the tea. This can be done by pouring hot water into it for a bit and then throwing that water out. The teapot will conserve the temperature.

As your teapot heats up in preparation, go ahead and boil water for your tea. Since this is a black tea, water must be at boiling point for proper brewing.

Make sure you use spring water to enhance the flavour of the tea.

Once the water is ready, pour it once more into the teapot and place 1 teaspoon of loose Lady Grey black tea leaves for every cup of tea.

Behold that beautiful sight. The colour and fragrance start emerging and you can almost feel it in your mouth! Let your Lady Grey steep for 3-5 minutes.

Now using a strainer, pour that magical tea into your teacups and serve.

You can also wait for it to cool down and add some ice to serve it cold. ItвЂ™s a great beverage for a hot sunny day, especially if you are hosting a tea party!

You may also add milk or sugar, but we advise you not to do so as it alters the taste of your tea. You should be able to enjoy and feel every trace of the bergamot oil, Seville orange and lemon peel.

Now that you have your tea ready, take it to another level. Take a look at our Tea Recipes section for some of wonderful recipes with tea cakes and deserts that may accompany your Lady Grey.

And if you are indeed hosting a tea party, hereвЂ™s a tip for nice tea party etiquette. Though it may appear to be rude, always serve yourself first.

Lady Grey from Twinings

Lady Grey from Twinings

When trying to decide which tea to review first, I stood in front of my tea cupboard horrified. When did I get so much…and where do I start. I returned to the site, browsed a bit, and realized that Lady Grey did not have a review. I had my answer, the first tea I would review would be Lady Grey by Twinings. But before I get into the review, I want to touch on my background with Lady Grey.

Several years ago I decided that I wanted to become a tea drinker. Being inexperienced in the ways of tea, I thought that tea only came in a bag and that my local grocery store was the only place to get it. I would buy anything that sounded good, take it home, pour boiling water on it, leave it for 10 to 15 minutes, and then add almost as much sugar as water. Not surprisingly, it all tasted horrid. I gave up on tea for a bit. At work a year or so later, my friend gave me a Twinings tea bag. It was not terrible. I went to the store seeking it out, they did not have it, but they did have a sampler box with Irish Breakfast, Earl Grey, English Breakfast and Lady Grey. I picked it up. I followed the brew instructions on the Lady Grey, added some milk and sugar…….and I liked it. Actually, I didn’t like it….I loved it. So Lady Grey is the tea that made me like tea, which is why I wanted to give her a review on this site.

Lady Grey is an unassuming tea bag, wrapped in a pretty blue wrapper. She is also available as a loose leaf tea, but I have not had the pleasure of enjoying her that way yet. Through the bag you can see the tiny pieces of tea, and little white pieces, which I am guessing are the orange peel or lemon peel bits. The smell of citrus is evident, with the lemon, orange, and classic bergamot mixing together with the smell of a simple Black Tea.

I usually brew the tea bag at a little under boiling. I get distracted easily, so I tend to scorch my teas into an undrinkable mess. The slightly cooler water has saved my tea more than a few times. Also, I typically drink at the office, where boiling water is not easy to come by. I brew for about three minutes. I always enjoy watching the first 30 to 40 seconds. The clear water slowly starts to infuse with the tea. For Lady Grey, the tea initially causes red-brown swirls in the water, eventually causing the cup to be a lovely ruddy brown. The smell as the tea steeps is all citrus, but not in a Lemon Pledge kind of way, in a freshly zested lemon for lemon curd kind of way.

Twinings describes this tea as:

Unique to Twinings, Lady Grey is Earl Grey’s elegant cousin. Her tea has the same light and delicate taste of bergamot, but with added hints of oranges and lemons.

We like this black tea best in the afternoon with a biscuit or a slice of cake. The fresh, bright flavour will instantly take you to a sunnier place.

While Lady Grey is very drinkable on her own, I like her best with a little milk and honey. Sugar is also good depending on my mood. I tend to use Tea Honey by Savannah Bee Co. because it sweetens the tea without overpowering the subtle flavors that make tea so good. I like the milk because it makes the tea cool enough for me to start drinking right away. If milk is not your thing, but you want to get to drinking, I have used ice on teas that milk is not appropriate. Just beware; some ice is not made from filtered water, and it will mess up your tea (if you are neurotic about filtered water).

I’m not quite sure how to describe Lady Grey. Delicious is the first word that comes to mind. If I was only allowed to drink one type of tea for the rest of my life, I would most likely pick this tea. She is just as good when taking the first hot sip, as when drinking the last cold sip an hour later. It is a mellow tea, with a pleasant taste that is recognizable as earl grey, but with an added citrus note. The lemon in this tea really shines, so if you are not a fan of lemon, this may not be the tea for you (but I still think you should give it a try).

I would have to agree with Twinings, this tea goes great with a treat. I love homemade lemon shortbread with Lady Grey. Although she is a relatively cheap cuppa, I love her, and so do many others….some so much they have even written poetry about her. So if you are on the hunt for a light, citrus tea, why not give Lady Grey by Twinings a chance?

How to Make Herbal Earl Grey Tea

Herbal "Earl Grey" tea is a blend that you can make yourself at home. For this herbal tea, the herb bergamot (also known as Oswego or bee balm) is used. However, be aware that real commercially produced Earl Grey uses bergamot oil derived not from the herb but from the peel of the citrus fruit bergamot (a type of orange grown mainly in Italy). You can call the herbal variant "bergamot tea" or "Oswego tea" if preferred. And in case you were looking for the bergamot citrus tea, a basic DIY recipe is also provided for this.

Ingredients Edit

Steps Edit

Method One of Three:

Herbal tea (and nothing else) Edit

The herb bergamot (Monarda) is used as a substitute for making herbal Earl Grey tea because early settlers once considered it to be similar in flavor to the original bergamot fruit. [1] This has caused some confusion over the years but provided you like the flavor, that's all that really matters!

Method Two of Three:

Black tea and bergamot herb Edit

This tea gives the aroma of Earl Grey to your usual tea. Not everyone would call this herbal but since you're still adding the herb, it's offered as another choice here.

Method Three of Three:

Orange bergamot tea Edit

I love Earl Grey tea. I enjoy it so much that I even wrote an article on the history of Earl Grey for my blog. I discovered Earl Grey doesn’t just have a unique and tasty flavor (although not everyone would agree with that), it also has a wide range of benefits. I love Earl Grey tea. I enjoy it so much that I even wrote an article on the history of Earl Grey for my blog. I discovered Earl Grey doesn’t just have a unique and tasty flavor (although not everyone would agree with that), it also has a wide range of benefits.

1. Good for Your Teeth

Tea contains very high levels of catechin , an antioxidant that fights oral infections. Fluoride is also a natural component of Earl Grey tea, and it’s also found in tap water. Fluoride is good for your teeth because it protects them from cavities, as well as fighting decay. So if you’re not a fan of city water, Earl Grey can be another natural way to get your daily dose of fluoride.

2. Digestion

Earl Grey tea has been known to improve digestion. It aids in the digestive process and helps relieve painful indigestion, colic and nausea. It is also used to treat intestinal problems such as worms. Because it helps the digestive process, it can also help to keep you regular.

3. Fights Anxiety and Depression

The bergamot in Earl Grey tea has been known to have a calming effect on people, as well as to boost a person’s mood. This is due to bergamot’s natural aromatherapy qualities. In this way Earl Grey is a good natural solution for people suffering from depression, stress and anxiety.

It may not have as much as a kick as coffee, but it does contain enough caffeine to give you a nice little afternoon boost without keeping you up all night.

5. Cancer Prevention

Earl Grey contains high quantities of antioxidants , which help our bodies to fight off free radicals that cause diseases such as cancer. Therefore, drinking the tasty beverage can give you a greater chance of not developing such diseases.

On a slightly less serious note, antioxidants also help your skin to stay healthy and looking young. Again, this is due to fighting free radicals that can damage your skin.

6. Weight Loss

Unsurprisingly, one of the most popular effects of Earl Grey tea is weight loss. This is primarily due to its citrus extract. It’s because of this that many people believe that citrus fruits in general can induce weight loss. It’s thought that calories are either broken down into food for your muscles or released through the natural metabolic process. So instead of cream or sugar, try putting lemon in your future cups of tea instead.

7. Prevention of Heart Disease

Good news everyone! Apparently, drinking three cups of Earl Grey tea daily may help lower your risk for heart disease. A study published in 2012 in Preventative Medicine found that people who drank three cups of black tea daily dramatically lowered their blood triglyceride levels and increased the ‘good cholesterol’ HDL after three months. The participants also had increased levels of antioxidants, which, as we now know, fight against free radicals that damage your cells.

Further research conducted by the University of Cantanzaro in Italy has also yielded positive results. A study of over two hundred patients with high levels of blood fats found that LDL (also know as ‘bad cholesterol) ‘bad’ cholesterol (LDL) was reduced by 39 per cent after a month of taking Earl Grey extract. It also reduced blood sugars by 22 per cent and raised ‘good’ cholesterol by 41 per cent. The reduction in blood sugar also shows that Earl Grey may be highly beneficial for those suffering with diabetes.

8. Stress Relief

Unlike the effects of coffee, Earl Grey tea relaxes and soothes the body almost instantly. It also has a stress relief effect whilst simultaneously providing the same clarity and focus as coffee. This makes it the perfect alternative for those who don’t want to get overly wired from coffee.

9. Cold Relief

The bergamot found within Earl Grey is said to improve the immune system as well as cure fevers. As such, it’s considered to be a natural cold remedy.

10. It Keeps You Hydrated

And no, not just because you take it with water.

Unlike the dehydrating properties of coffee, tea helps you stay hydrated and maintains the body’s fluid balance because of its high potassium content.

An Introduction to Earl Grey Tea

Earl Grey's flavor, history, caffeine levels, types & more

Earl Grey tea is one of the most popular teas in the West. This black tea with hints of citrus is a perfect introduction to tea, it is great served hot or cold, and pairs well with food. That's why it is a favorite for afternoon tea and preferred by many tea drinkers throughout the world.

There is a lot more to know about Earl Grey. Let's explore its history and the great variety of Earl Grey available.

Earl Grey's Flavor

Earl Grey is a black tea, so it usually has a bold flavor. Unlike Orange Pekoe (which is a tea grade named for the Dutch royal House of Orange-Nassau rather than the fruit or the color orange), Earl Grey has a citrusy flavor.

Earl Grey's citrusy taste is due to the addition of natural or synthetic bergamot oil. The bergamot orange is a type of aromatic citrus fruit that is usually grown in the Mediterranean. Bergamot oil is extracted from the skin of the bergamot fruit.

Although Earl Grey varies from one producer to another, its taste is often described as bright, refreshing, and bold.

Earl Grey's History

Earl Grey is named after Earl Charles Grey of England who was Prime Minister from 1830 through 1834. Although he abolished slavery during his time in office, he is most remembered for his namesake tea.

The common story behind the naming of Earl Grey is that the recipe was a token of thanks to the politician.

It is said that he saved the son of a Chinese tea blender from drowning. In his gratitude for this good deed, the blender passed on this special recipe for a black tea flavored with bergamot oil.

In reality, it is highly unlikely that Earl Charles Grey ever visited China, much less saved a drowning boy there.

No one really knows why Grey received this honor, though the tea was named around Charles Grey's time in office. It is entirely possible that the name could have simply been a nod to a powerful political leader.

More recently, Earl Grey tea has made a number of appearances in popular culture. It is a favorite of Captain Picard in "Star Trek: The Next Generation", as well as Sir Leigh Teabing of "The Davinci Code."

In America, Earl Grey is sometimes spelled Earl Gray instead, though this is not a generally accepted spelling of the name.

Caffeine in Earl Grey

The caffeine content of Earl Grey varies from one type to another, but it is generally comparable to other black teas.

Regular Earl Grey Tea: 55 to 90 mg of caffeine per cup (sometimes incorrectly called caffeinated Earl Grey)
Decaf Earl Grey: 2 to10 mg per cup

Types of Earl Grey Tea

Earl Grey is so popular that it has spawned a number of similar teas. One of the most popular of these is Lady Grey, which is usually a blend of Earl Grey and blue cornflower blossoms.

Other popular Earl Grey variations include:

Russian Earl Grey - Earl Grey with pieces of citrus peel mixed in.
Decaf Earl Grey
Earl Red / Red Earl Grey / Earl Rooibos - A bergamot-flavored rooibos.

Earl Green - A bergamot-flavored green tea or, in some cases, a bergamot-flavored pouchong/baozhong.

Some tea companies offer other stately names such as Mademoiselle Grey or Lord Grey. These are blended with spices, flowers (such as rose petals or lavender), or other ingredients.

Some coffee shops and tea shops also offer a drink called London Fog. This is a tea latte made from Earl Grey, steamed milk, and vanilla syrup.

How to Make and Enjoy Earl Grey

Like many black teas, Earl Grey is fairly easy to prepare. To brew Earl Grey tea, you'll need a teapot, some Earl Grey tea leaves, and quality water that is nearly boiling or at the boiling point.

Some people prefer to pre-warm their teapot with hot water, which helps maintain the steeping temperature. To do this, simply pour boiling water into the teapot, wait a minute, and then discard the water.

To Make Earl Grey:

Use about one teaspoon of tea leaves (or one regular-sized teabag) per cup of hot water.
Steep in boiling or near boiling water for four to five minutes, depending on the tea and your flavor preferences.
Then, remove the tea leaves (or tea bag).

Some people enjoy sugar and/or lemon in their Earl Grey. While it is not traditional to add milk to citrusy teas, some Americans also enjoy milk in their Earl Grey.

Earl Grey tea is one of the preferred teas for Afternoon Tea. It pairs very well with many sweets, such as scones and Madeleine cakes. Earl Grey is also a great tea for brunch pairings.

How to Buy Earl Grey Tea

Earl Grey is available in most Western grocery stores, tea shops, and gourmet foods stores, as well as on most online tea retail sites.

Loose-leaf Earl Grey tea is recommended over Earl Grey teabags.
If you prefer a strong black tea flavor, a base tea from Kenya, Ceylon, or Assam is usually a good choice.
If you prefer a milder black tea flavor, a base tea from Nilgiri or Darjeeling will be better for you.
If you like a smooth, rich black tea flavor, try Earl Grey with a Yunnan or a Keemun base.

If you want to try a variety of types of Earl Grey, check out companies with Earl Grey tea samplers or flavored tea of the month clubs.

What Are the Health Benefits of Earl Grey Tea?

If you're a tea drinker, you may have heard of or tried Earl Grey tea, a blend of different Chinese teas with some added citrus flavor. Named for a 19th-century English prime minister, Earl Charles Grey, it's a flavorful, aromatic blend that could also provide significant health benefits because of its content of natural, biologically active compounds.

Video of the Day

Components

LIke all traditional teas, Earl Grey tea leaves come from the tea plant -- Camellia sinensis -- and contain compounds that belong to a class of natural chemicals called flavonoids and flavonols. The leaves are dried and rolled to produce black teas such as Earl Grey, a process that promotes formation of additional potentially healthy compounds called theaflavins and thearubigins. Many of these tea components are potent antioxidants that may help protect you from chronic problems such as cancer and cardiovascular disease, according to research summarized by experts at the Linus Pauling Institute.

Beneficial Effects

Results of research into black tea such as Earl Grey support its ability to help keep you healthy and disease-free. Studies such as one published in the September 2001 issue of "Journal of Nutrition" suggest that this may be due at least in part to the antioxidant properties of theaflavins and other tea flavonoids. Antioxidants help your body rid itself of unstable, potentially harmful molecules called free radicals that form during digestion, in your skin when you're in sunlight or in your organs after exposure to toxins. A large study published in the November 2012 issue of the "American Journal of Clinical Nutrition" found that, among 69,000 female subjects, those who drank at least 3 cups of tea weekly had a significantly lower risk of digestive system cancer than women who weren't tea drinkers, although studies that identify a direct link between tea and lower rates of disease are still needed.

Dental Benefits

Black tea such as Earl Grey also contains fluoride, which can promote dental health. A study published in the January 2003 issue of "International Journal of Food Science and Nutrition" found that laboratory animals given an extract of black tea and fed a high-sugar diet that promotes cavities had about 64 percent fewer cavities than those fed placebo and a regular diet, a benefit the authors attributed to the fluoride content of the tea extract. Although direct studies supporting this benefit in humans are still needed, a study in the June 1999 issue of "Community Dental Health" found that, among 6,000 English children, those who drank tea regularly had the least cavities and best dental health.

Some Precautions

Black tea such as Earl Grey is generally considered safe, although it could cause mild gastric upset in some people. It also contains caffeine, which might cause nervousness or agitation if it's consumed in large amounts. Tea might also slow uptake of iron from plant foods, dairy products or iron supplements, and should be consumed in moderation by pregnant or breast-feeding women. If you have questions about the potential benefits of Earl Grey tea, discuss them with your doctor or a registered dietitian.
