THAI ICED TEA

Steps:

• Combine the water and cardamom pods in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat, add the tea bags and stir gently. Steep for 10 minutes, then remove the tea bags. Add the sugar and condensed milk and stir with a wooden spoon until all of the sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool.
• Remove 1 1/2 cups of the cooled tea mixture from the saucepan and pour this into an ice cube tray. Freeze for at least 4 hours. Strain and refrigerate the remaining tea.
• When ready to serve, divide the tea ice cubes between four glasses. Fill the glasses with the chilled tea mixture, leaving a little extra space at the top. Top each glass off with 2 tablespoons of the half-and-half. Serve garnished with a slice of candied ginger, a stalk of lemon grass or a mint sprig, 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!
