Thai Iced Tea

Bryan and I love to order Thai iced tea when we go to eat Thai food. Thai iced tea is strong, and sweet. It is a great drink. After a few attempt, Bryan and I have come up with this recipe. It is easy, and it tastes like the one in restaurants. Now, you can pay less for more. Enjoy! 🙂

 

Thai Iced Tea

4 cups

Ingredients:

–   1 cup Thai tea mix

–   4 cup water

–   ½ cup and 2 tablespoons sugar

–   1 cup half and half

–   8 – 12 ice cubes

Directions:

1. Boil 4 cups of water in a kettle. Put the tea leaves into a 34-ounce coffee press, and pour the hot water into the press. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
2. Press down the tea leaves. Add the sugar and mix well. Pour the tea into a pitcher. Let it sit and cool for a while before chilling in the fridge.
3. In a glass cup, add 2 – 3 ice cubes. Pour a cup of cold tea into the glass. Add ¼ cup half and half and adjust to your taste. Mix well and serve immediately.

Tips:

1. If you do not have a coffee press, you can boil water in a pot. Add the tea leaves and let it sit for 5 minutes. Add the sugar and mix well. Strain the tea with a fine strainer or a tea sock into a pitcher.
