Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 cups water
  • 3 tablespoon Thai Tea leaves or sub with regular black tea leaves or decaf black tea leaves for a decaf version
  • 2 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk or condensed coconut milk for dairy-free option
  • 2 tablespoon evaporated milk or evaporated coconut milk for dairy-free option
  • 8 ice cubes or as needed

Instructions
 

  • First in a tea strainer, line it with a coffee filter to help strain out very tiny tea leaves. Do not skip. Then fill the lined tea strainer with the tea leaves. If you're using black tea bags, you can skip this step and place the bags into the small pot. Then place the strainer into the small pot and fill the pot with 2 cups of water. Bring it a boil on medium-high heat. Reduce to low-medium heat to simmer and let this steep until it's very dark brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Then in two separate glasses, fill them each with 1 tablespoon of condensed milk followed by divided ice cubes. If you prefer this hot, pour into a mug and skip the ice cubes.
  • Next once the black tea is steeped, pour into the tall glass.
  • Lastly, pour 1 tablespoon of evaporated milk over each glass and mix to enjoy! Finally feel free to add more condensed milk if you prefer it sweeter.
