Ingredients

  • 1 cup Thai Tea Mix Use a purchased mix
  • 4 cups water
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar Reduced amount to taste

Organic Tea Bags Ingredients

  • 4 cups water
  • 4 bags organic black tea
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 anise stars
  • 1 green cardamom pod smashed
  • 2 whole cloves
  • ¾ cup half and half Can substitute with coconut milk
  • ice

Instructions
 

Thai Tea Mix Directions

  • Bring water to boil and add the thai tea mix. Add sugar and gently stir to completely dissolve sugar. Gently boil tea for about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Allow tea to steep for at least 30 minutes and allow it to cool. The more concentrated the tea flavor, the better the Thai tea tastes.
  • If you are using the Thai tea mix, strain the tea leaves. Set finished Thai tea aside to cool.
  • Fill glasses with ice and pour in Thai tea leaving enough room to fill in your half and half.

Using Organic Tea Bags Directions

  • Bring water to boil and add the tea bags, sugar, star anise, cardamom pod and cloves. Stir until all the sugar dissolves. Gently boil tea for about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Allow tea to steep for at least 30 minutes and allow it to cool. We prefer to allow the tea bags to seep for about 2 hours for maximum flavor.
  • Remove the tea bags and spoon out the star anise, cardamom pod and cloves. If tea is still warm, refrigerate it so it can be chilled.
  • Fill glasses with ice and pour in organic Thai tea leaving enough room to fill in your half and half.

Notes

You can make this tea mix ahead of time and have it chilling in the fridge.
