Thai Tea is a popular iced drink hailing from Thailand, commonly found in Thai restaurants across the U.S. It can be enjoyed hot or cold with a twist of lime as a self drinker (without milk), or it can be brewed to create a traditional, restaurant-style Thai Iced Tea when combined with ice, milk and sugar.

To recreate a restaurant-style Thai Iced Tea, steep a double strength cup of tea. Then sweeten the hot brew with sugar, and serve over ice. Glasses of Thai Iced Tea are usually topped with sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, half and half, or coconut milk. The final addition of milk usually rests on top of the ice cubes creating a beautiful layered effect in the glass! Did you know that the deep orange color of Thai Iced Tea served in restaurants is usually attributed to artificial coloring? This organic version from Arbor Teas has no artificial colors or flavors - when milk is added, it will not turn orange, but a beautiful natural light brown.
