Thai iced tea

Thai tea, or cha-yen, is a very strong sweet black tea with milk. If condensed or concentrated milk is not added to this tea, it will be called cha-dam-ron. Thais usually drink it in the early morning before leaving for work. They "snack" Thai pa-tong-ko donuts - completely low-fat, unlike ours. And they always drink very hot. But what we like the most is Thai tea for tourists - very cold cha-yen.

  • 2 tbsp. l. loose black tea
