Thai Iced Tea

Hello everyone and Happy Monday. New day, new week and yes, new recipe! Over the weekend we get to go out and try different types of cuisines. We tried many thai places before and many of them don’t serve vegan iced tea. We got a bit disappointment since it’s one of my favorite drinks during the summer. So i went home and decided to make Thai iced tea. You just need few ingredients for this recipe and it’s easy to make.  I made a big pitcher so we can drink it for few days. You can make as much as you like.


Well, let’s get started with the recipe!
