Ovaltine Yen

So one of the great inventions in thailand is that they have taken a drink that had been mostly rejected by american society and turned it into something beautiful. We as Americans rarely drink Ovaltine. Its a drink that for one reason or another has not tempted the average shopper or drinker for that matter. However, here in Thailand it is my favorite drink. For only 10 baht (like 3 cents) you get a drink of pure deliciousness. Try it sometime. You mix ovaltine with a small amount of hot water so that it is concentrated, add sweetened condensed milk, stir, pour over ice, add more sweetened condensed milk and one scoop of sugar....mmmmm

Another thing which is done here that is simply not done at home is Thai people add sweetened condensed milk to everything. Ice coffee, tea, chocolate, ovalitine, etc. It really is a brillant idea although it sounds gross at first because you add your milk and sugar at once.

We are way behind the times.
