Thailand has some very famous drinks, including Red Bull and Singha, but there's nothing more famous throughout the world than Thai iced tea, which is known in Thai better as cha yen (ชาเย็น). The tea is served at Thai restaurants around the world, and many people, especially if they like sweet and creamy beverages, love it. Thai ice tea is often easy to recognize because of its bright orange color and creaminess.
Why wait until you go to a Thai restaurant to have ice tea? Here is an authentic Thai iced tea recipe, Bangkok street food style, that you can make at home right now. There are only a few ingredients that you need, and if you have an Asian supermarket near your home, it should be quite easy to get everything you need. One thing I just want to clarify though is the orange color of Thai iced tea. The tea brand that is commonly used in Thailand is called Cha Dra Muer (ชาตรามือ) - or it's just known as Number One Brand. It's black tea that includes a bit of C yellow number 6, which is what gives it the signature color. However, though I have not tried it, if you just use regular black tea for this Thai iced tea recipe, it should still work fine, it just won't be that orange color.
Anyway, along with black tea, here are the rest of the ingredients you'll need:
1 tablespoon Thai black tea
1 cup of hot boiling water
2 teaspoons sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons evaporated milk (plus some more to sprinkle on top)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 cup of crushed ice
The first thing you need to do is steep your tea. There are many ways to do this, but on the streets of Thailand, most Thai iced tea vendors will make their tea using a tea sock, which is almost like a real sock connected to a wire ring. You add the tea leaves to the sock, pour hot water into a cup, and just let the leaves brew for a few minutes. Alternatively, you could just add your tea leave to a cup, pour in the hot water, let the leaves brew for a few minutes, and then strain out the leaves - whatever is easiest for you. Next step is to mix in sweetened condensed milk as well as evaporated milk, and stir it up until it's a nice creamy mixture. You can also add in some extra sugar, according to your own taste. Just to note, since you will be pouring your hot tea over ice, you can make it a little sweeter than you think, as it will become watered down from the ice.
As an extra step, but it is very fun to try, you can put the tea in one cup, and then pour it, using some elevation to another cup. This is going to create some foam on your tea, almost like froth. This is not necessary, it's just fun (see video for details).
The next step in this recipe for Thai iced tea is to take a glass, fill it up to the top with crushed ice, and then pour your milky tea mixture over the ice. Give it a quick stir, and then finish it off with another sprinkle of evaporated milk to give it a nice creamy top. Drink you Thai iced tea with a straw, and if it's a hot day, you'll surely be satisfied and refreshed. Enjoy.

I KNEW it had coloring in it! This tea is so awesome. I remember when I was in grade school, the truck would come, and they had cha dum yen, and nom yen, and cafe yen, we drank it everyday! 5 baht, and you drink it from a plastic bag, with ice and straw. Such memories!!!
YazmanianDevil y r u devil
How can you not know??? It says black tea and looks orange + it says on the package...
@@kevinnoel4647 maybe because he/she was still in grade school then, and didn't buy a pack of tea but just premade ones from stalls
It’s orange dye and is very bad for your sperm count or ovaries. Dyes are dangerous
Oh wow.. nice memories
My favorite C-YELLOW #6! just like my grandma used to make it!
adds a nice lil razzle dazzle
Tea have color no good not healthy don't drinking
Hmmm, what on earth is C-Yellow #6??? I'm going to have to cut down on this stuff obviously!
@@panumatbelle2558 know it’s 3 years late, and you may be sarcastic, but I’m just gonna explain it in case you don’t know:
Basically it’s a artificial food coloring made from petroleum. It’s used in variety of foods like cereals, and drinks such as Thai Tea, and even medication.
However it being artificial, it has side effects like ADHD-like behavior in children, mild poisoning, and even in some cases brain damage, though I do have a hard time believing that one.
I make Thai tea at least every other day using my coffee maker. Clean coffee maker thoroughly. Put 8 tbsp of Thai Tea leaves into filter and brew. Pour over into a pitcher and add 1 cup of sugar. For every glass I put one to two half and half liquid individual creamers. Its so simple!! Ive also used the canned coconut milk or evaporated milk. Its more convenient using the creamers. Enjoy!!
Although the creamers are more convenient, condensed milk gives it a caramel-type flavour, and an authentic thai taste.
Gypsy Dover hey I’m a Dover too!
That's Indian tea
Thank you for this. I never though of doing it in the coffee maker! What a brilliant idea.
@@globalcitizenn My bag of tea leaves I get from a Thai Restaurant says Thai Tea
This is my favourite drink! I drink this almost everyday whenever I'm in Thailand!
Shouldn't be watching this at 4am while craving this.. 😭
I too am watching this at 4am!! But imma get out of bed and make it😋
Yeeah! This iced Tea will. Sweeten. 🌱🐻🍯 up! All morning ! 😊😊😋😋😆😆
Omg me too and it’s 4:42
Hahaha same, but at 1:43am for me 😅
I drank Thai Iced Tea A LOT when I traveled to Bangkok. Sooo good!
😃...love this when I was young! Now, I can't handle all that sweet and caffeine BUT it still looks good and brought back some great memory of drinking it with my family! Thanks again Mark!
can't get enough of this tea, perfect with thai food of course
That looked great! I remember having a few cups myself over by MBK!
I've had a Vietnamese coffee prepared pretty much the same way, but served hot. Equally delicious.
That ladle is waaaay cool and that last step, even more awesome.
Me encanta tu canal!!!
As adielfaisal mentioned this reminds me of Teh Tarik. I lived in Malaysia for a year as a kid, left a huge impression on me. I love South East Asia!!
I've always wondered how they make this, thanks for showing!
thank you so much for this video! I'm always buying my tea either in a bottle or at cafes, but now I know I can make it at home!
Found that Thai tea in my local Asian supermarket. I didn’t think it’d be so easy to make. Thank you for the tutorial!
Thank you, I'm a Thai People.
I love your video man!!
เป็นอะไรที่สดชื่นมาก ถ้ากินหน้าร้อน
Delicious and perfect for the summer!! After today we love Thai iced tea. Greetings Mark!!
i drink this everyday for many years and i still love it
Hey Mark, I've been watching your Thai recipe videos and just jumped on to your blog for the first time. Wow, I am loving what you do here. I also married kon Thai suay in 2013 and am searching my mind for ways to spend more time in Thailand. Keep doing what you are doing, it's awesome!
I am in Thailand now and l love this tea... l love the green one too. ❤❤❤
Whoaaa I love the colors when you mix it 😍
Well done Mark !! I think you are the best " farang" that lives in Thailand and truly appreciates Thai culture and food ! :)
I’ve tried this method, do adjust to your taste and sugar level. This simple recipe is perfect and the taste is the same if not better than those served at Thai restaurants ! Thanks so much !
Now that's thaisty
Ha, nice one!
That was very punny 😉
i laughed at work XD very good sir lmao
Mark Wiens… you are an essential portal to Thailand !!! Thank you
Its by far my favourite
My favourite type of iced tea ever!!
I drank Thai tea on my last day of vacation in Bangkok and it was SO GOOD!
Love those so much!... Thank you for the video!
I just for back from Thailand. Bought some of those leaves. Had one almost every day I was there. So refreshing. Thangs for the refresher on making it how I remembered it
I tried this out it worked like a charm, and tested wonderful.
I was just watching your food tour of Petchaburi Soi 5 in Bangkok and it made me really want to try and make Thai iced tea myself. So I search how to make it and.. lo and behold, you made a video about it years ago! Thanks for the quick and easy recipe, man. It was neat to experience one of your older videos.
Hey Ying & Mark,
When we go out to Malaysian restaurants, I usually get a Teh Tarik or Kopi. It's a nice change from Western tea/coffee. Here in Sydney,we are experiencing our warmest May on record with temps around 26°C, and it's only a week away from Winter.
This recipe will come in handy!
Stay safe you 2.
Jim.
Very helpful! I love Thai milk tea so much!
I love your channel. You introduced me to some of my favorite places in Bangkok, which I have recommended to my friends and travelers and everyone are freaking out at how good the food is at these restaurants. My favorite is close to BTS Ratchatewi on Soi 5. I went there almost everyday. I was obssessed. I had lost your channel, I am so glad it just popped up out of nowhere. Well done by the way.xx

I did it with black and green tea. It tasted really good. I recommend you should try it like that too.
Oh wow . Thanks Mark. This is the most delicious tea i have ever tasted
It truly refreshing drinks. :)
Thanks Waruth, yes so refreshing.
Love thai tea..so tasty..
I miss Thailand so damn muchhhhhh even though I just got back 1 week ago huhu =(((((
Thai tea is refreshing on a hot day, but I could never finish my glass because it was always so sweet.
Kevin Cook use more evaporated milk for creaminess, less of the condensed milk. or just forget the condensed milk at all and add sugar to taste.
Or just hold sugar altogether. Sweet Condensed Milk is very sweet by itself.
Yea I've noticed that foreigners (white people particularly) have a hard time to finish Iced tea due to its sweetness. Since then I serve 'em less sweet whenever a white guy orders one
btw nice and clear explanation. :) love they way you make it.
thanks for recipe !
I'm craving some Thai iced tea now! 🍹
