How to Make Sugar Free Thai Iced Tea

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups of water, 4 black tea bags, 1/2 cup of tightly packed fresh basil leaves, 2 star anise, 3 cardamom pods, and 1 cinnamon stick.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and let the tea steep for an additional 5 minutes.
  4. Strain the tea through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher, discarding the solids.
  5. Stir in your preferred sugar substitute to taste (start with 1/4 cup and adjust to your liking). Ensure it's completely dissolved.
  6. Refrigerate the tea until thoroughly chilled (at least 2 hours).
  7. To serve, fill a tall glass with ice. Add 2 tablespoons of evaporated fat-free milk (or your preferred milk alternative).
  8. Pour 6-8 ounces of the chilled sugar-free Thai iced tea over the milk and ice.
  9. Stir gently and enjoy your delicious and healthy Thai Iced Tea!
