Earl Grey Tea

What is it?

Served hot through the McCafé counter, this Earl Grey comes as a tea bag steeped in water, with milk or sweetener added if you like. It’s black tea scented with bergamot oil, so you get that familiar citrusy, floral aroma rather than the malty profile of standard breakfast tea. Compared with McDonald's plain black tea, this is the more perfumed option in the hot drink range. It’s usually offered as a simple single cup rather than part of a larger tea menu, so the focus stays on the tea bag, the water, and how long it steeps.
