I read the tea shop series books by Laura Childs. In the last book they mentioned a Cream Earl Grey tea. Does anyone drink it?
The online definition I found is 'Earl Grey Crème is a classic black tea blend infused with bergamot citrus, fragrant lavender and notes of creamy vanilla inspired by the much-adored 'London fog'(a hot tea beverage that's made with half Earl Grey Tea, half steamed milk, and vanilla syrup).

I order several teas from Harney & Sons in New York and the New Mexico Tea Company.
I like variations on Earl Grey and NM Tea Company sells a Cream Earl Grey.
Here's their description:
An exquisite Earl Grey character mellowed with soft hints of cream. If you are fan of Earl Grey and have not tried tried this, you are in for a treat. Cream Earl Grey has a taste that is smooth with vanilla overtones, which stand out above the premium bergamot flavor - the signature taste of Earl Grey.
Blend of black teas, cornflower petals, bergamot, natural flavors.
Make a "London Fog" without a milk steamer:
1) Use 1.5 teaspoons of Cream Earl Grey and steep for 5 minutes.
2) While the tea is steeping take heavy cream, add in some vanilla extract, sugar, and a touch of boiling water. Shake the cream vigorously (to simulate the steaming process)
3). When the tea is ready, pour the cream mixture in. You even get a nice layer of froth on top!
Strangely, I didn't care for this one as much as I thought I would. I do like Harney & Sons Victorian London Fog (black tea, oolong tea, bergamot oil, lavender, vanilla flavor).
Their Paris (black tea, oolong tea, black currant flavor, vanilla flavor, bergamot oil, caramel flavor) is also good.
NM Tea Company offers a tea that's similar to Victorian London Fog called Vintage Earl Grey. Black tea, rose petals, lavender, rosemary, bergamot and rose oil. Fragrant!

And in a pretty package.
