Time for Thai Iced Tea

Thai Iced Tea is one of my favorite drinks, but I have yet to reproduce the restaurant version at home. I was excited to see how Alton's homemade version would compare. The most signature part of Alton's recipe is the inclusion of tamarind pulp, which he notes is there for tang.
Add ALL THE SPICE
It definitely delivers on that front, this has the strongest sour flavor of any Thai Iced Tea I've tried. I find the tamarind is overwhelming the other spices, so I don't think this one is going to my cup of tea.
Still can't get that top layer of cream layered on the tea like in the restaurant version.
Difficulty Level: Easy
Will It Get Made Again? I'm tempted to try this without the tamarind paste and see how that compares to other versions, but I won't be repeating it as written.
