Recipe ni Bangkok street stalls · 🏺 Traditional · Street and shophouse cooking of Bangkok, much of it shaped by Chinese-Thai families
Thai street drink · traditional — An ownerless street drink, so no cook is credited. The cited article — Wikipedia's canonical title is 'Thai tea', to which 'Thai iced tea' redirects — confirms that the drink is made from Ceylon black tea or the local landrace bai miang, sweetened with sugar and condensed milk, with evaporated or whole milk poured over the tea and ice before serving, and that it is served in a tall glass in restaurants or over crushed ice in a plastic bag by street vendors. It also states that star anise and cardamom appear in many English-language recipes but are not typical of the drink as consumed in Thailand. TWO HONEST GAPS: the article does NOT explain the drink's orange colour and does NOT attribute it to food colouring, and it gives NO history of the drink's origin — so this book makes no claim about either beyond noting that the commercial Thai tea mix is what produces the familiar colour. Quantities and method here are this book's own.

Mga hakbang
Put the tea into a jug or a cloth tea sock and pour the hot water over it. Steep for a full 5 minutes — this needs to be strong enough to taste unpleasant on its own.
💡 It has to be over-brewed. Once condensed milk and a glass of ice are added, a gently brewed tea disappears completely.
Strain the tea, then pour it back and forth between two jugs from a height five or six times.
💡 This is the same pulling motion used for teh tarik. It cools the tea, aerates it and gives a softer mouthfeel — and it is a lot easier over a sink.
Stir the sugar and condensed milk into the warm tea until nothing is left undissolved, then let it cool for a few minutes.
Fill two tall glasses to the brim with ice and pour the tea over. Float the evaporated milk on top and do not stir it in — serve with a long spoon or a straw and let whoever is drinking do the mixing.
💡 Mga tip
- Not vegan and not dairy-free — condensed and evaporated milk are the drink, not an optional finish. A coconut-milk version exists in Thailand and is good, but it is a different drink and should be called one.
- Cha dam yen is the same tea without any milk, sweetened and iced — lighter, and the version to make if you want to actually taste the tea.
- Star anise and cardamom turn up in a lot of English-language Thai tea recipes but are not typical of the drink as it is actually made in Thailand. Add them if you like the result — just do not assume you are being more authentic by doing it.
- Street stalls in Bangkok serve it in a plastic bag over crushed ice with the bag knotted around a straw. Restaurants use a tall glass. Both are correct.
