Tea Drops Brand Thai Iced Tea Mix - 5 Bagless Loose Leaf Sweetened Tea Packets with Evaporated Milk - Milk Tea Mix

I am a big fan of Thai iced tea! Came across this item on my instagram feed and so glad that I ordered it and gave it a try!! When I ordered the first packet and made my first Thai Iced tea, I would have to agree with the other reviews, the tea leaves a lot grounds on the bottom and it is extremely uncomfortable to drink. The directions say it will leave a few, but it is WAY MORE than few. However, I FOUND A SOLUTION to this problem. I place a tea drop into a one time "loose leaf tea filter" and let it melt in there. Pretty much ALL OF THE grounds stay in the filter bag and all you are left is with the tea in your cup! It makes a huge difference by using a filter bag. I would suggest you do the same, this way you are not left with so many grounds that make it uncomfortable to drink it. The taste is great and it is more affordable to make it at home verses buying it constantly at a restaurant. I love the product for the amount of money it costs me.

The flavor of this product is spot on for what I was expecting. The packaging is cute and looks good. Where it kind of started to fall apart for me was the overall volume of drink. In the description it claims each "packet" meaning tea, milk and water will provide a 10-12 oz. When adding up the preparation instructions the total yield of volume is roughly 6oz, which is quite misleading. I did attempt to make 10oz and that was a bland, tasteless mistake. I see there are reviews regarding the sediment of the tea, which states it's loose leaf tea in the compressed cube. The sediment is fine and a smidge gritty but nothing awful. There wasn't much in the first one I used, but the others seemed to have more, which is a bit off putting. Overall the product is fine, but since this only provides a small drink I don't think I will purchase again.

Flavor is amazing and exactly the taste I was longing for. However imo (personal opinion) it needs more sweetener per teacube to be closer to the restaurant flavor I'm used to. So I use two sweetners per teacube which means I don't have enough for every cup of tea. I can use condensed milk I already have but it's a pain opening a can for a few tbs. Also I found that the cube doesn't fully dissolve so I had grit in the cup. So I had to use a coffee filter to get the grains out so the cup was smooth. Next time I'll use my reusable Kcup to filter the cube vs. dissolving it directly in the cup. In all if I'm having a craving it certainly hits the spot. It's way better than brewing a pot of tea, waiting for it to cool and then adding the sweet milk etc...

It really will. It may not be authentic compared to what you recall in your adventures in SE asia. But this flavor is spot on. It's delicious hot or cold. This isn't an everyday product. It is more like a treat. Something I enjoyed on my hammock this sunny sunday afternoon. It was at least as good as what you could get at restaurant. Perfect for camping. The customer service is amazing and helpful. I love the quality of the condensed milk. I will buy again! If you are new to Thai Tea then be prepared for a full bodied beverage. It's conventionally sweetened with condensed milk. It makes for a rich full bodied flavor that gives you tons of fats and sugars in addition to the caffeine. The Tea can be sweateneed in way you like.

I’m so disappointed. I was really hoping this would be a great Thai tea that’s easy to make and take on the go, but it’s so gritty it’s unbearable. The flavor almost has a chemical taste to it, and the tea drop never fully dissolved, so you’re left with a blah-tasting tea with the texture of sand. I’m glad I didn’t order anything else I was hoping to try from them, and I won’t be ordering from them ever again.

This tea is delightful. Slightly sweet (all the reviews said overly sweet, I like sweet so it was just slightly sweet to my taste) and strong as far as flavor goes. You could always add more water I suppose if you like a weaker tea. As far as the leftover tea leaves goes, it was unpleasant for me the first time I drank the tea but I simply bought a tea diffuser that would catch the majority of it, because I like the flavor but the little grounds everywhere wasn't for me. Overall good purchase, shipped quickly and was exactly as expected.

The flavor isn't bad at all. But the price is ridiculous when I can get 23 Thai iced tea bags for 7.99. The tea is also incredibly sludgy, because much of the tea drop does not dissolve. Very disappointing.

I have the same problem as many of the other reviewers-- I don't like drinking the sludge of tea leaves at the bottom of my cup. The issue isn't that the tea drop doesn't dissolve (it never will, it's leaves), it's that there's no better solution. I get that a teabag isn't traditional and a drop is more environmentally friendly, but that leaves a sludge at the bottom of the cup (and leaves floating in your drink). That's what inspired me to write the review. I've been dissolving the tea drop in one cup with the 1/4c hot water, then pouring it over an unfolded napkin as a filter into another cup. It's an extra step, and it's annoying, but it works. Then add the condensed milk, cold water, and ice, and you have your drink. A word of advice, though: follow the measurements on the package. Otherwise you dilute the drink without any way to rebalance it. I'm considering leaving out the ice but putting the cup in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes to chill instead to keep the flavor strong. All in all, it's cheaper than buying five thai iced teas from a restaurant, but also a smaller portion overall. I probably won't buy again since I have a big package of the tea and just found out that you can buy sweetened condensed milk in a squeeze bottle, so I won't have to open a can just to use a tablespoon of it...
