Teh tarik (lit. 'pulled tea'; Jawi: تيه تاريق) is a popular hot milk tea beverage most commonly found in restaurants, outdoor stalls, mamaks and kopitiams within the Southeast Asian countries of Brunei, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and Thailand.[1] Its name is derived from the process of repeatedly pouring the drink back and forth from one container into another (or "pulling") with arms extended during preparation, which helps to slightly cool the tea for consumption and giving it a frothy head. It is made from a strong brew of black tea blended with condensed milk.
According to the BBC, it is considered the "unofficial national drink" of Malaysia.[3] Malaysia nominated it for 2024 United Nations recognition as an intangible cultural heritage food.[4][5]
