Instructions

  1. Pour the boiling water over the Thai tea mix in a heatproof jug and leave it to infuse for 5 minutes.
  2. Pass the tea through a fine sieve into a clean jug and discard what stays behind in the sieve.
  3. Stir the granulated sugar into the warm tea until it has dissolved, then let it cool to room temperature.
  4. Fill a highball glass with ice and add the white rum.
  5. Pour the cooled tea in slowly and leave room at the top for the cream.
  6. Hold a bar spoon just above the tea and pour the cream slowly onto it, so the cream settles as a separate layer.
  7. Stir once, lightly, just before serving, so the layers only partly blend.
