Thai Tea Latte

Hi Everyone, this Thai Tea Latte is a hot, drink recipe to change up your afternoon tea routine or swap out with your typical coffee drink recipe.

This recipe is similar to the Thai Iced Tea recipe on the blog, except that it's not an iced drink. This recipe is like the "cold-weather-friendly" version of Thai Tea - although, you can enjoy it year-round.

This is not a coffee recipe but if you want, you can add a shot of espresso to it, however, it's black, strongly brewed tea, and has plenty of caffeine in it already!

This Thai Tea Latte is definitely a sweet treat; I don't have this drink every day because it's pretty sweet.

When I am craving that smokey, Thai Tea flavor, it's definitely a welcome drink and that distinctive Thai Tea orange color is so pretty!
