Your daily cafe order in Thai
In the Phuket heat this is a phrase you will reach for constantly. An iced latte is laa-te yen (ลาเต้เย็น), built from the loanword laa-te (ลาเต้) for latte and yen (เย็น), the word for cold or iced.
That little yen on the end is the key: add it to almost any drink and you get the iced version, which is what most people want in the tropics. Swap it out and you can order the hot one instead.
Once you have this pattern, the whole cafe menu opens up. This short Thai reel shows how to order an iced latte so you can get your caffeine fix the Thai way at any coffee shop on the island.
