Thai Iced Tea
HB-5799 · Hand-built original · Thai
Deep orange, sweet and creamy spiced tea over a mountain of ice.
Main ingredient: tea
Pairs well with: spicy curries, satay, spring rolls
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp Thai tea leaves or strong black tea with a star anise
- 2½ cups water
- 3½ oz sugar
- 13½ Tbsp evaporated milk or coconut milk
- ice, in quantity
Method
- Brew the tea leaves in the water for 5 minutes — it should be strong. Strain into a jug.
- Stir the sugar into the hot tea until dissolved, then leave to cool completely.
- Pack four tall glasses with ice.
- Pour the tea over the ice, then float the evaporated or coconut milk over the top of each glass so it cascades down as you stir — half the pleasure is the swirl. Serve at once.
