THAI ICED TEA

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Place tea in a tea sock, add to the boiling water, remove from the heat, and let steep for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea. Strain the tea into a pitcher and stir in the condensed milk. Fill 4 highball glasses with crushed ice, pour in the tea, and stir to chill. Add more sweetened condensed milk, if desired.

THAI ICED TEA RECIPE (CHA YEN) - AUTHENTIC THAI STREET FOOD STYLE!

Steps:

• First step is to boil water, I'm just using a pot, but you could use a water boiler or microwave
• Take your tea sock and add about 1 tablespoon of black Thai tea. It's then easiest to put your tea sock into a bowl or big cup in order to steep the tea.
• Pour 1 cup of boiling water into the tea sock, and push it in and out to steep the tea and extract all that flavr. Steep the tea for a few minutes until it turns nice and dark in color.
• Taking a new cup, pour in 1 glass of hot tea
• Add 2 teaspoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of sweetened condensed milk, and give it a nice stir
• Then add 2 teaspoons of evaporated milk, and continue to stir the tea until everything is fully mixed in
• Optional - A good Thai iced tea should have a little froth or some bubbles on top, so take 2 pitchers, and pour the tea from one to the other, with a bit of elevation. You could do this in a different way too, but it's pretty fun!
• Take a cup and fill it all the way to the top with crushed ice
• Gentry pour your hot tea mixture over the cup of ice
• To give your Thai iced tea a final creamy touch, drizzle on some more evaporated milk onto the top of your cup
• Add a straw, and you're ready to start slurping it down!

• Fill 6 tall glasses with crushed ice and add tea to 3/4 full. Add 1 tablespoon cream and 1 tablespoon condensed milk to each glass.
• Serve with iced-tea spoon so guests can swirl the mixture themselves.
