Thai Iced Tea

Course: Beverages
Cuisine: Thai

Ingredients

  • 4 Cups Water
  • 3/4 Cup Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup ChaTraMue "Number One" Thai Tea Mix
  • 1 Cup Half & Half
  • 2 Cups Ice

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in sugar and Thai tea mix until sugar is dissolved. Cover and let steep for 15 minutes.
  • Set a Thai-style cloth tea strainer or other fine meshed strainer over a pitcher. Pour tea mixture through and squeeze out liquid from tea leaves. Careful, tea is hot! Thoroughly chill tea. Can be made the night before.
  • To a 16 ounce glass, add 1/2 cup ice and 1 cup tea. For a pretty serving presentation, very carefully pour 1/4 cup half & half so that it barely mixes with the tea.
  • Before drinking, stir the half & half into the tea so that they are well mixed. Makes 4 servings.

Notes

Tapioca Pearls go well in Thai Iced Tea as well. See Milk Black Tea with Tapioca Pearls recipe.
