Ingredients

• 500 ml boiling water
• 30 g Thai green tea mix (cha keow)
• 3 tbsp Sugar
• 3 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
• 4 tbsp Evaporated milk
• 720 ml crushed ice

Method

1. Pour the boiling water over the tea in a jug and steep for 5 min, stirring once, until it is a strong green-gold.
2. Strain through a fine tea sock or a sieve lined with a coffee filter, pressing gently.
3. Stir in the sugar and condensed milk while hot, then leave to cool for 15 min.
4. Fill two tall glasses with ice, pour in the tea and float the evaporated milk on top. Stir before drinking.

Tips

• Thai green tea mix (such as ChaTraMue) is sold in Asian shops; it is flavoured, so plain green tea tastes quite different.
• Contains dairy.
