Stir the eggs and sugar with vanilla sugar over simmering water until you get a thick mousse. Get off the stove and add gelatine soaked in cold water, and the zest and juice of the limes. Cool it down. Whisk the double cream, and add it to the mousse. Stir gently and put in the fridge for at least 6 hours. To make the tea sauce boil the milk with two tea bags, leave the bags in the milk for a few minutes then remove. Add some sugar to taste. Put back on the stove and thicken it with some corn starch added to cold milk. Serve on a plate forming balls of the mousse or put the mousse in individual glasses before putting in the fridge.

Introduction
I just found this recipe, sounds like a lovely summer-time refreshener (though I'm not sure about the tea sauce, but the Anglos might find it irresistible :)
