Ingredients

½ teaspoon Thai tea mix
¾ cup water
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
¼ cup boba pearls

Instructions

First, make the Thai tea. Combine 2 grams (about 1/2 teaspoon) of the tea mix with 200 ml (about 3/4 cup) water. Allow that to steep overnight and then strain out the tea mix before using.
Next, prepare the boba pearls and allow to cool before use.
Now you’re ready to assemble your drink. In a glass, add the boba pearls and then ice.
I drizzle the sweetened condensed milk along the sides of the glass. You could also mix it in with the tea or milk if you prefer.
Then pour in the Thai tea. Then top the drink off with the milk. Enjoy cold!

Notes

I will typically make 4x to 5x the amount of Thai iced tea to have in a small pitcher so I can enjoy Thai iced tea all week along with making this Thai tea boba recipe.

I use 2% dairy milk for the milk in this recipe, but you could use whole or a milk alternative like soy or oat milk if you prefer.
