Teh Tarik

(Pulled Tea)

Teh tarik is a unique Malaysian beverage consisting of black tea, sugar, and condensed milk. The combination is then poured back and forth between two brass containers, a technique known as pulling tea. It improves the flavors of both tea and milk, imparts a creamy and smooth texture, and adds a visually appealing frothy top.


Teh tarik is traditionally served in clear glasses, so that the beverage can be seen and appreciated in all its glory. It is often paired with roti prata, and can be found in most coffee shops and mamak stalls in Malaysia and Singapore.
