Traditionally, oliang is brewed with a tung dtom kaffee - a metal ring with a handle to which a cloth bag is attached. It is sometimes referred to in English as a 'tea sock' as it is also used for making Thai tea.

To make coffee like this, put the oliang in the bag and pour boiling water through into a carafe. Let the bag steep for approximately 10 minutes until strong.

Add sugar and stir to dissolve. Allow to cool. Pour into a glass with ice, and add the dairy product of your choice: half and half, condensed milk, evaporated milk or a mixture of these three.

The proportions of coffee, water and sugar may vary according to taste. Try using 2/3 part oliang to 1 1/4 parts sugar to 6 parts water. Thais like their coffee incredibly sweet!

Alternately, you can brew the coffee powder directly in boiled water for 10 minutes. Strain through a coffee filter or a fine metal strainer. Continue as above.
