Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan or kettle.
Add 2 teaspoons of black tea leaves (or 2 black tea bags) to the boiling water and steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength.
While the tea is steeping, combine 2 tablespoons of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of unsalted butter, 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar (or sweetener of choice), and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over low heat.
Stir the mixture gently until the butter is melted and all ingredients are well combined. Be careful not to let the cream boil.
Strain the tea into mugs to remove the tea leaves (if using loose-leaf tea).
Evenly divide the buttercream mixture between the mugs and stir well to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your rich and creamy Buttercream Tea!
