In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil over medium heat.
Once the water is boiling, add the black tea bags, granulated sugar, and ground cardamom. Reduce the heat to low and let the tea simmer for 3-4 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Discard the tea bags.
Let the tea cool slightly for about 2-3 minutes.
Fill two tall glasses with 1 cup of ice cubes each.
Pour the brewed tea over the ice in each glass, filling about three-quarters of the way.
Top each glass with 2 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. Stir gently to combine.
Serve immediately with a straw or spoon and enjoy your refreshing Thai tea!
