Oh, my goodness. I have been waiting for a recipe like this for years. It's for thai iced tea here. I love this drink so much I once walked 45 minutes each way in hot sun, on dusty roads in Thailand for just one iced tea. It was absolutely worth it. I can't wait to try this.

Ingredients (6 servings) 1 whole star anise 2 cardamom pods 5 cups water 8 Assam black tea bags 1/4 cup honey 2 cups coconut milk

Directions

Bring water to a boil. Stir in the honey, then add the tea bags, star anise and cardamom. Cover and steep for 30 minutes.

Chill the tea in the fridge until it as at least room temperature, preferably cooler if you can wait!

Fill a glass with ice, then fill the glass 3/4 of the way full with the chilled tea (make sure it’s chilled so it doesn’t melt the ice cubes and make for a watery tea).

Top each glass with 2-4 tablespoons of coconut milk and serve immediately!

Store the extra brewed tea separate from the coconut milk in the refrigerator for 1 week.
