Now, you can have thai tea the real way here in LA! Most Thai restaurants use an artifical powder to sell Thai teas that we all love, but the real thing is actually so much more. Brewed, strained, real spices like star anise, cardamom, cinnamon and more. Cha Tra Mue is a very well known brand in Thailand for Thai tea and while they do make the powder form, they also sell Thai tea the way it’s meant to be made in their stores. Now there is one location in America and it is in Chinatown la! They have a variety of styles for you to try.😋 🧡 🧋 Try for yourselves!
