Thai Iced Coffee
Kingdom, a type of filter, is widely seen in Thailand and is made from a cotton bag hanging around a metal ring (just like a sock suspended from a metal ring) with a handle. It has a similar procedure as you make Thai tea.
Use ground coffee to brew and just before brewing, add 2 teaspoons of cardamom, usually ground, along with one teaspoon of almond syrup and 4 tablespoons of sugar. Brew the mixture to its perfectness and the allow it to cool. Now add sufficient amount of crushed ice (about half the glass) and a scoop of cream. Your Thai Iced Coffee is ready to be served to the customers’ pleasure!
