Bergamot is a small, green citrus fruit mainly grown in Southern Italy. Its highly aromatic rind is extracted for essential oil, as its flesh is too bitter to eat.

Picard's exact replicator command is "Tea, Earl Grey, hot." Actor Patrick Stewart suggested this specific beverage for the character because it was his own personal favorite.

Despite its name, this sweet tea latte was actually invented in Vancouver, Canada, during the 1990s. The vanilla syrup helps balance the sharp, citrusy bergamot notes.

Twinings developed this blend in the early 1990s for the Nordic market, which found traditional bergamot too pungent. It adds orange and lemon peel for a milder, sweeter cup.
