Had thai iced green tea with milk at a thai restaurant specializing in isan food. Not sure if it was the restaurant or the brand they were using but totally tasted disgusting and not like any normal general green tea you would find in most Asian food places. I gave it one sip and i was like wth is this. It had the floral notes as you mentioned but tasted very much chemical induced as well and not very natural tasting.

Today I went to a new local authentic Thai restaurant and tried their Thai tea. I actually found them because I was searching for Thai tea and accidentally did it in Google Maps. Happy accident, because they were just a mile from my house and also have Thai tea. Funny you mention the lime in the tea, because they made a special tea, butterfly pea flower tea, which I they added lime to and it was really great! They also made mine with oat milk and I was surprised how well it worked compared to classic dairy. Oh my gosh though, I’m so happy you shared this with us. I need to try making it for myself (part Thai) and more importantly, my wife who loves it even more. 🙏🏽

@user-lw8vb9fb8h 9 месяцев назад

Viewer from Taiwan 👋 In my country, it is not common to find evaporated milk in the regular supermarket, it will usually appears in bakery suppliment shop, but only comes in one brand which is Carnation from Nestle. So to make things easier, I usually have a stronger tea base, without adding suger but use condensed milk only to reach the sweetness, then adding more of milk (compared to the traditional Thai style) to finialize it.

@triadwarfare 7 месяцев назад

This is strange since you live in close proximity to SEA nations which use these substitutions a lot. Speaking of which, as a Filipino, we have sub-variants of those, which is "condensada" and "evaporada", where cream is mixed in with the evaporated/condensed milk to make it cheaper and since most of the people making our local desserts would do it anyway (and even add more cream to dilute what's remaining of evap/condensed milk). Unfortunately, our economy isn't doing so well and prices had shot up significantly, so it's more than the price of where the original versions where previously, and I think the original versions will no longer sell.

@DrowningInTea 5 месяцев назад

@@triadwarfare Taiwan doesn't really have a milk tea tradition like Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia and Myanmar so it makes sense that they don't use evaporated milk. Speaking of milk tea, their boba tea base tastes very fake from my POV as a HKer because their tea doesn't use milk but milk powder.

@darvoid66 Месяц назад

So, food coloring and fake vanilla is the secret? Interesting. I usually make a giant pot of lightly sweetened black tea (one cup of turbinado sugar to 1.5 gallons of water and 30 tea bags) and keep it in the fridge. When I make a glass of iced tea I add a splash of pure vanilla and half & half and squeeze a quarter of a lime into the glass.

Although apparently sweetened condensed oat milk (and evaporated oat milk!?) is a thing...

It's great to see you finally do this video Pai. It's very thorough and helps solidify the information and little nuances of making Thai Thai. I had to learn how to make this using Google Translate to replicate it about 12 years ago. I use ⅔ Cup of Police Dog Thai Tea Powder to 1.3 Litres of Thai Tea in the Plunger (French Press). Pour in hot then plunge after 30 minutes extract maximum flavour. This brand was the one that tasted most authentic to what I was served everywhere in Thailand. The flavour is great and it has added dye which makes the colour a really nice orange hue and stains your hands while preparing it. When I use the Cha Tra Mue Brand, I use only ½ cup as this one turns out too bitter if strong. It also has a more floral taste that I don't like.

@totalbliss1 9 месяцев назад

I have to say I've tried both versions many times and I've come to prefer a hybrid of both. I make a "milk sauce" mixing half&half and condensed milk together and pour that over the Thai tea omitting the extra sugar at the end. I prefer half&half over evaporated milk due to it being more richer but the best in taste, which I've had in some fine Thai restaurants, is heavy cream that's been sweetened by condensed milk. I've asked them point blank what they use and they told me heavy cream. That just makes the tea amazing...but no so healthy for regular drinking.

Better than a cup imo, you got a drinks bag you can carry with one finger, or even handsfree and hang it up almost anywhere.

Have you tried Hong Kong-style lemon tea and milk tea? They're my favourite drinks, and I believe in Vancouver there are a few great cha chaan tengs (Hong Kong-style diners), where you can give them a go, as the Hong Kong community is not exactly small there. I like them unsweetened, but the beauty of HK-style drinks is that you can order them at any sweetness level you like. To digress, since Thailand, Taiwan and Hong Kong are all known for their milk tea (and, sadly, political struggles), netizens started to call these places collectively the "Milk Tea Alliance" several years ago.

@Apollo440 9 месяцев назад

They add the food coloring to the tea for good reason: You can differentiate good milk tea by its color. And it takes just the right amount of condensed milk and just the right strength of tea to get the color and taste right. A beautiful orange is what it should be. And if it's pale - it's too weak or dilute. If it's darker - it's just too strong. I would do it with additive free tea, playing around with tea steeping times and condensed milk amounts to get the recipe just right. And try it hot, it's very nice as well!

I'm so glad I found your video!🙏✨ A few months ago I bought a bag of Thai tea (the same of the video) but couldn't make it taste right, I found out my mistakes; I was using regular milk and very little sugar 😬 Now I can have delicious Thai tea at home thanks to you!💛

Hi Khun Pailin, great video.. when I'm in Thailand I prefer the green tea cha yen although I suspect it too has green food coloring.. my brewing method involves using a nylon hosiery I got from my mom..lol. It keeps all the tea leaves out of the brewed tea. I loved the orange color so much I use it for staining some woodwork 😊

I love Thai tea. When I was in Thailand a few weeks back I wasn't sure which to buy. I found this on Amazon and ordered.

Many years ago, I went to a Thai American restaurant with my mother. We had Thai iced tea and it was sooo good. I asked how they made it and they said black tea (I think) and condensed milk. I love it!

oh my GOD. finally!!! i have seen so many sources saying do one or the other but I can never get my tea to taste like the local thai places. This explains everything. They must be doing the thai version because condensed milk and SCM is much cheaper here in Hawaii. But I was doing that version wrong the whole time. Great video

Ooooh! I just learned about 3-layer tea, which is very similar (uses palm sugar). I like your vanilla idea, and I think I will add that to my 3-layer brew...

I learned how to make an iced cocoa drink with evaporated and sweetened condensed milks. I had started making half of it coffee for a super rich iced mocha. Now I’m definitely going to have to try this!

I make Thai iced tea all the time in my french press. My vegan version uses condensed oat milk, and instead of the evaporated milk, I use aroy-d coconut milk, or ripple half and half. So good 😋.

At my local Asian grocery store they sell a coconut evaporated milk! Its by the brand chaokoh and its bombbbb

Toronto person over here! I don't know what's up in BC where you are, but I've never seen it with cream. I've only ever seen it with condensed milk! At home, the recipe I use is closer to your Thai version, but without the evaporated milk - only condensed - and it steeps longer. I can't wait to try your version!

Very blessed to have Thai relatives and an actual authentic restaurant up the street.

@SweeetSpice 3 месяца назад

Thank you! I followed your recipe but I used condensed coconut milk and evaporated coconut milk instead and it’s YUMMY 😋 The coconut flavor isn’t strong at all so it tastes very similar to when you buy it ❤

@Nyx96-sy7hg 8 месяцев назад

Tea is called "cha" in my language, too (Bengali) and those of us who live in Canada use Carnation evaporated milk and Tetley orange pekoe almost exclusively to make our hot tea. Back home, condensed milk and roasted black tea leaves are usually used. We don't traditionally have cold or iced teas, but they are similar to the Thai iced tea. I started learning Thai cooking from you about 10 years ago. You made it SO easy to make my own curry pastes and of course, one of my top Thai dishes: khao soi...all from scratch! I'll have to make Thai tea now.

Cha Manao rules. Super refreshing on warm days. It ia almost as good as the coconut milkshakes. Thailand is obsessed with fancy coffee drinks and bubble tea. There are coffee shops everywhere, frequently little outdoor stands.
