Adding tea leaves to a cake batter is such a simple and pleasant way to add interest – and depth of flavour. I like to use a mortar and pestle to grind the tea leaves,not to a powder but so they’re fine enough to permeate the whole cake. If you have another favourite black tea,feel free to use it instead.
Even without icing,this cake is quite lovely,but the lemon icing definitely complements the citrus notes in the tea.
