Seafood & Tea pairings
While Earl Grey is normally used to flavour sweet treats, try pairing it with a platter of oysters for a truly unconventional combination. The citrus aromas marry well with the salty notes, but make sure to use a delicate tea so the bergamot doesn't overpower the flavours of the seafood.
