Thai iced tea is one of my favourite drinks to get with my takeout! It's sweet and creamy but not overpowering. It's the perfect complement to spicy noodles!

Ingredients

Vegan Thai Iced Tea

  • 2 tbsp loose leaf Thai Tea Mix affiliate link
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1-2 tbsp plant-based condensed milk or use 1-2 tbsp sugar instead
  • 1/2 cup plant-based milk
  • 8-10 ice cubes

Vegan Cheese Foam

  • 2 tbsp plant-based cream cheese
  • 2 tbsp plant-based milk
  • 1/4 cup plant-based whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar
  • Optional: a pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Brew 2 tbsp loose leaf Thai Tea mix in one cup of boiling water for 4 minutes.
  • Once brewed, remove the tea leaves and mix in the plant-based condensed milk or sugar, then add the plant-based milk. Set aside to prepare the vegan cheese foam.
  • Vegan Cheese Foam (longer way but thicker cheese foam)
  • Prepare the vegan cheese foam by mixing plant-based cream cheese and plant-based milk together to create a loose paste. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, whip the plant-based whipping cream with icing sugar until you get nearly stiff peaks.
  • Then add in the plant-based cream cheese and gently fold in until incorporated. Add a pinch of salt if your cream cheese doesn't have any salty flavour.
  • Vegan Cheese Foam the Lazy way
  • In an electric milk frother or using a whisk on an electric mixer, combine the plant-based cream cheese, milk, whipping cream, and icing sugar and put it on the cold froth setting. I had to do it 1.5 times to get it fully incorporated.
  • Add a pinch of salt if needed.

Assemble the drink

  • Pour the brewed tea with plant condensed milk and plant milk over ice between two glasses. Stir to chill, then pour cheese foam on each glass. Enjoy!
