How to Prepare Malaysia’s Famous Three-Layer Milk Tea

Originating from Malaysia, the three-layer milk tea is renowned for its distinctive flavor and visually appealing layers. Made with palm sugar syrup, evaporated milk, and black tea, this beverage earns its name from the distinct layers formed when each ingredient is carefully poured into the glass.

To recreate this iconic drink at home, follow these simple steps:

Ingredients:

  • Palm sugar syrup (or substitute with brown sugar, caramel, or coconut sugar)
  • Evaporated milk
  • Black tea

Instructions:

1. Start by preparing a batch of strong black tea. You can use your favorite black tea leaves or tea bags. Brew the tea according to the package instructions and allow it to cool to room temperature.

2. Once the black tea has cooled, pour it into a tall glass, filling it about one-third of the way.

3. Next, carefully pour the evaporated milk over the back of a spoon into the glass. This technique helps create distinct layers. Aim to fill the glass another third with the evaporated milk, ensuring it sits on top of the black tea layer.

4. Lastly, slowly pour the palm sugar syrup (or your chosen substitute) over the back of the spoon to create the final layer. The syrup should sit on top of the evaporated milk layer, completing the three layers.

5. To enjoy the full flavor of the three-layer milk tea, gently stir the drink with a spoon to blend all the layers together. This will create a harmonious balance of sweetness and richness.

6. Serve the three-layer milk tea immediately and savor its unique aroma and taste.

With just a few simple ingredients and careful layering, you can experience the delightful flavors of Malaysia’s famous three-layer milk tea in the comfort of your own home.
