Advice
Brew it stronger than you think, ice is the enemy of flavor, a concentrate keeps the drink bold and cafe level. π§
Why it works π‘
Strong steeped tea carries aroma through the dairy, and a tiny pinch of salt sharpens sweetness so it tastes smooth and premium, not sugary. π‘
Twist πΆοΈ
Add 2 g Thai tea mix (Β½ tsp / 0.07 oz) if you have it for a deeper classic profile, or add 30 ml coconut milk (2 tbsp / 1 fl oz) for a richer modern cafe finish. πΆοΈ
