Thai Iced Tea image

There are almost as many ways of making Thai tea as there are Thai restaurants. I love the richness the cardomom, cloves and cinnamon add. You can also skip the sugar and use sweetened condensed milk in place of the half-and-half. No other tea will substitute for Thai tea--you can find Thai tea in Asian markets, or if you are really lucky, in the Asian section of your grocery store. Prep time does not include chill time.

This Thai iced tea was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little more sugar. I found it to be a little too tart for my taste.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet tea, but this Thai iced tea is really good. The sweetness is balanced out by the tartness of the lemon.
