How to make Thai tea – easy recipe

Serious Mealtimes / Amanda Suarez

With its striking orange color and bold flavor Thai iced tea (ชาไทย) — more commonly called cha yen (ชาเย็น iced tea) or sometimes cha nom yen (ชานมเย็น iced milk tea) — is a staple of daily life in Thailand. Walk down any busy street and you’re sure to come across a cart or hole-in-the-wall where vendors scoop the black powder from battered tins and peddle glass after glass of the terracotta-colored beverage from the tap. It’s an anytime anywhere beverage: Locals enjoy it in the morning with pa tong koh (the Thai equivalent of Chinese youtiao) use it as a palate cleanser between bites of fiery pad kra pao and use it to cool themselves after steaming bowls of boat noodles. My favorite way to enjoy it however is neat. On a hot day a sip of the cold sweet drink feels like a luxury.
