How to make Thai tea concentrate

1. Bring the water to a rolling boil and turn off the heat.
2. Steep the tea bags and spices in the boiled water for 15 minutes.
3. Strain the spices out of the tea using mesh strainer lined with a coffee filter to separate out the spices.
4. Cool the tea completely and store the tea concentrate in the refrigerator for up to a week.

How to make Thai iced tea:

1. Pour your Thai Ice Tea base to fill the glass until it is ¾ full. (or is it ¼ empty? )
2. Top the tea with 2 large tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. I like to watch it sink to the bottom of the glass and see the lovely trails of milky deliciousness as it falls.
3. Stir to combine and enjoy!

Thai Iced Tea Making Tips:

• If you would like the have your tea sweeter, add another spoonful of sweetened condensed milk.
• Other options for adding milk to your tea would be heavy cream, whole milk, coconut milk or almond milk. You may have to adjust your sweetness if you opt for one of these ingredients.
• It is best to let the tea cool completely before mixing the tea with the sweetened condensed milk. But if you are like me, and want your delicious drink NOW fill a glass half full with crushed ice.
