Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (240ml) water
  • 4 tbsp (30g) Thai tea mix
  • 2 tbsp (25g) granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) evaporated milk
  • 4 cups (950g) ice cubes

Instructions:

  1. Bring 1 cup (240ml) of water to a gentle boil in a small saucepan.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in the Thai tea mix.
  3. Steep for 5 minutes until the liquid turns a deep, vibrant orange-brown.
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a heat-proof pitcher, pressing the leaves to extract all flavor.
  5. While the tea is still hot, whisk in the granulated sugar until completely dissolved.
  6. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and opaque orange.
  7. Allow the tea mixture to cool to room temperature for approximately 10 minutes.
  8. Fill four tall glasses to the brim with ice cubes.
  9. Pour the sweetened tea base into each glass until it is roughly 3/4 full.
  10. Slowly drizzle 1 tablespoon (15ml) of evaporated milk over the top of each drink, allowing it to swirl naturally for a marbled effect.
