In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, add the Thai tea mix and reduce the heat to low. Let the tea steep for 5 minutes to extract its vibrant flavors and color.
After steeping, strain the tea into a heatproof bowl or pitcher using a fine-mesh sieve or tea strainer to remove the tea leaves.
While the tea is still hot, stir in the coconut sugar and vanilla extract until fully dissolved.
In a separate small saucepan, gently warm the coconut milk and almond milk over low heat. Do not let it boil—just heat it until warm to enhance its creaminess.
Fill two tall glasses with ice cubes until about three-quarters full.
Pour the cooled Thai tea over the ice, filling each glass about halfway.
Top the tea with the warm coconut milk and almond milk mixture, dividing it equally between the two glasses.
Stir well to combine and enjoy your Dairy-Free Thai Milk Tea immediately!
