Thai Ice Tea









For my birthday Lindsey sent me all the fixins to make Thai Ice Tea: Chinese Tea, Condensed milk, evaporated milk, sugar, and a sock like contraption used as a filter.

I just made my first batch and I have a newfound respect for the guys who make "Chaa Yen" on the corners. They whip up a glass (or bag for the take-away kind) in about 30 second.

It took me on the other hand over 20 minutes. I have tea bits all over my table, my floor was introduced to liquid tea, I managed to use every spoon I own, and I think my palms will be orange for at least 2 days.

But it sure is yummy....
