Us, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nothing makes us feel like we\u2019re on an exotic beach\ngetaway quite like a tall glass of sweet milk tea. And this recipe is the\nperfect refresher for those laid back summer days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is Thai Iced Tea made of? <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The key ingredient in Thai Ice Tea \u2013 other than the\nperfect tea, of course \u2013 is the condensed milk. Poured over crushed ice, it\nadds just the right amount of creamy sweetness to the cinnamon steeped brew.\nAnd yes, you should use the whole can. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Thai-Iced-Tea-Ingredients_HERO-1024x390.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Thai-Iced-Tea-Ingredients_HERO-1024x390.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Thai-Iced-Tea-Ingredients_HERO-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.davidstea.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Thai-Iced-Tea-Ingredients_HERO-768x293.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Teas to use for Thai Iced Tea<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The flavour of tea you choose to brew for this recipe is entirely up to you, but a black tea is a must.
