Ingredients

Tea Base

Creamy Topping

Garnish (Optional)

Preparation

Prepare the Tea

1. Boil Water

In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

2. Brew the Tea

Once the water is boiling, add 4 tablespoons of Thai black tea leaves, 1 whole star anise, and 3 whole cloves. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.

3. Sweeten the Tea

After simmering, remove the pot from heat and strain the tea into a bowl or pitcher to remove the tea leaves and spices. While the tea is still warm, stir in 1 cup of sugar until it is fully dissolved. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature or refrigerate until chilled.

Prepare the Creamy Topping

4. Mix the Cream

In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup of evaporated milk with 1 tablespoon of sweetened condensed milk. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and evenly mixed.

Assemble the Drink

5. Serve the Tea

In a tall glass, add about 1 cup of ice cubes. Pour the cooled Thai tea over the ice until the glass is full, leaving some space at the top.

6. Add the Cream

Gently pour the creamy milk mixture over the tea, allowing it to float on top for a beautiful presentation.

7. Garnish (Optional)

For an optional garnish, add fresh mint leaves on top. Serve immediately with a straw or stir to mix before drinking.
