CHA YEN (THAI ICED TEA)

Cha Yen (Thai Iced Tea) image

This homemade Thai iced tea gets its complex flavor from black tea, rooibos tea, star anise and cloves, and its sweetness from condensed milk. Adapted from the cookbook "Bangkok" by Leela Punyaratabandhu, this version is hardly typical: Most Thai iced tea sold on the streets of Bangkok - or in Thai restaurants stateside - contains an immoderate amount of sweetened condensed milk and uses a store-bought mix, which contains food coloring. The tea blend used here is intense on its own, but mellowed by ice and milk. Chill the tea fully before pouring it over ice so its flavors don't get diluted.
