Are you all set for the upcoming summer season? I’ve got a refreshing drink recipe for you that’ll be perfect to cool down on hot summer days – Thai Iced Tea!
Now, let me tell you, Thai Iced Tea is not just any ordinary iced tea. It’s an explosion of flavors in your mouth! The combination of black tea, sweetened condensed milk, and spices like star anise and cardamom makes for an unforgettable taste.
To make Thai Iced Tea, you’ll need some Thai black tea bags, sweetened condensed milk, star anise, cardamom pods, and ice. Brew the Thai black tea and let it cool down. Then, add the sweetened condensed milk and spices to the tea and stir well. Pour it over a glass of ice, and voila! You’ve got yourself a delicious Thai Iced Tea. But don’t worry, I have a recipe below.
The best part about this recipe is that you can adjust the sweetness according to your liking. If you prefer it less sweet, just reduce the amount of sweetened condensed milk you use. And if you’re feeling adventurous, you can even add a splash of coconut milk for an added tropical twist.
One cup has around 150 calories, depending on the amount of sweetened condensed milk you use. So, it’s not the healthiest drink out there, but it’s definitely worth indulging in once in a while.
So, grab your girlfriends and whip up a pitcher of this Iced Tea for your next summer get-together. Trust me, it’s going to be a hit!
