Quality asmr. Personally, I don't use sugar, I use a small amount of xylitol. I brew it like you did, but I have a steel tea strainer ball that allows me to steep it overnight in the fridge.
You could! I like to add it later since I typically brew the Thai tea as a concentrate that can be stored in the fridge until ready to use. Adding the condensed milk would shorten the shelf life of the concentrate.
You can definitely get away with less time, but I tend to like the tea flavor being stronger with a longer steep time. You could potentially add a bit more tea leaves with a shorter steep time to achieve a similar result. Experiment and see what works for you 👍
I ask because I have seen the locals just pass it through the sock 5 times and that is indeed a shorter steeping time. I wondered if it could become too strong--or maybe there's no such thing. I will try your way next time and see what I think! Thanks! @@bobaventures
ive been steeping for 30 minutes after boiling with the OG thai tea mix but its incredibly weak flavored, so honestly steeping for long period of time is da way
good i will try to make the tea recipe

Reminds me of how to basic
I prefer it stronger so I use 1 cup tea to 4 cups water (or 1.5 cup tea to 6 cups water)
Wouldnt you want to add the condensed milk while the tea is still hot?

okay but why would you add the sugar to the tea leaves before straining it when you can just add the sugar after straining?
It's just preference. The water is most hot at the beginning of steeping, so I find that the sugar dissolves better.
😋
Can I add half and half instead of milk
@@7saolao yes, you can use most milks, just make sure that it's creamy!
Do you think it really needs to steep for 20 minutes?

@@yabs9642 you also don't have to use as much tea leaves which makes the wallet happy ;)
