Thai Drinks

What is sold from the cart next to the food, hot and iced. 5 dishes.

  • Cha Nom Yen

    ชานมเย็น

    Heat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 25–55 THB

    Cha Nom Yen is Thai iced milk tea — similar to cha yen but made with regular milk rather than evaporated milk, resulting in a lighter, creamier drink popular at bubble tea shops and cafés.

  • Nam Anchan

    น้ำอัญชัน

    Heat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 30–70 THB

    Nam Anchan is butterfly pea flower tea — a stunning deep indigo-blue herbal drink made from butterfly pea blossoms that turns vibrant purple when lime juice is added, naturally caffeine-free and mildly earthy.

  • Nam Manao

    น้ำมะนาว

    Heat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 20–40 THB

    Nam Manao is Thai limeade — fresh lime juice, sugar syrup, and a pinch of salt over ice, making an intensely refreshing drink that is as much a staple as water at any Thai meal.

  • Oliang

    โอเลี้ยง

    Heat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 20–40 THB

    Oliang is Thai iced black coffee — brewed from a blend of coffee, corn, and soybeans, served over ice with sweetened condensed milk, creating Thailand's version of the classic strong iced coffee.

  • Thai Iced Tea

    ชาเย็น

    Heat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 20–50 THB

    Thai Iced Tea (Cha Yen) is a sweet, vibrant orange drink made from strongly brewed black tea mixed with condensed milk and evaporated milk, poured over crushed ice. It's refreshing, rich, and the perfect antidote to spicy food.
