Thai Iced Milk Tea Recipe
Report
Cool down from the blazing summer (or spicy Thai food!) with this refreshing Thai Iced Milk Tea recipe your taste buds will thank you for! It's unapologetically bold and made of only 6 ingredients for restaurant-quality Thai tea right at home. Cheers to this heaven sent caffeine boost you've been looking for!

Ingredients
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup Thai tea mix
- ¼ cup sugar
- pinch salt
- 1-3 tablespoons condensed milk
- ¼ cup evaporated milk
- ice cubes
Instructions
- In a medium-sized pot, add the water, cover with a lid, & heat on medium-high. As soon as it comes to a rolling boil, turn off the heat, add Thai tea mix and sugar. Stir so leaves are fully submerged and sugar is dissolved. Allow the tea to steep for 5 minutes.
- Strain the tea leaves using a sieve and/or cheese cloth, then stir in the sugar & salt until it’s dissolved. Allow the tea to cool for at least 30 minutes.
- To serve, stir together condensed milk and Thai tea. It’s easiest to use a spouted measuring cup if you want to make an iced tea version. Make it a little sweeter than you’d like because the ice will dilute the Thai tea as it melts.
- In a tall cup, add boba (if using), then ice, & the Thai tea. Leave enough room at the top of the cup for the milk.
- Pour in evaporated milk, then stir before enjoying immediately!
Notes
- Condensed Milk: I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but sweetener is needed in the recipe to be flavorful. I tend to add just enough condensed milk to be lightly sweet, however, if you enjoy an extra sweet version, add more!
Key Tips:
Flavorful Tea Without Becoming Bitter: Steep the tea leaves as recommended and no longer, otherwise, you may end up with a bitter drink. Then, allow the tea to cool. Dairy-Free: Authentic Thai tea recipes call for evaporated milk or condensed milk, however, you can swap it out for coconut condensed milk & coconut milk for a creamy dairy-free version.
