A tea twist on the classic pot de creme! This no bake pot de creme is a delicious dessert!
Traditional Pots de Creme are baked, with a more custard like consistency. We have made no bake chocolate Pots de Creme, but wanted to try something with a new flavor profile. Earl Grey tea is a very distinctive flavor, and we felt it would lend a richness to a custard like pudding for this tea dessert. So we wanted to try a tea version of a no bake pot de creme.
