Thai
tea when ordered in Thailand is a drink
made from strongly-brewed powdered red tea.
Other ingredients in the powder vary, but
may include added star anise, tamarind or
red and yellow food coloring, and sometimes
other spices as well. This tea is sweetened
with sugar and condensed milk and served chilled.
Evaporated or whole milk is generally poured
over the tea and ice before serving--it is
never mixed prior to serving--to add taste
and creamy appearance. It is popular in Southeast
Asia and in many American restaurants that
serve Thai or Vietnamese food, especially
on the West Coast.
