Thai Iced Coffee & Tea

I absolutely adore Thai iced coffee and tea drinks. They are the beverage I splurge and drink on special occasions. As they are quite sweet and rich, I do not believe they are suited towards everyday drinking.

I found this video online today showing Thai Iced Coffee being made in Thailand. It basically consists of:

• sweetened condensed milk
• sugar
• coffee
• ice
• evaporated milk

The result of these ingredients is pure heaven in a cup.  I love how in this video the result of the iced coffee is served in a plastic bag.  I have not seen that done before.

Iced Coffee

I am an avid lover of iced coffee! It is truly one of the most delicious and refreshing beverages in summer! Actually, I have been known to drink quite a bit of iced coffee even in the winter. I just love the iciness mixed with the lushness of the coffee. Here is a great video with lots of delicious cold coffee recipes such as vanilla lattes, coffee spritzer, and shaken mocha!
