Nom yen (Thai, "cold milk", นมเย็น) is a Thai drink made from a combination of milk and sala syrup, which gives the drink its characteristic pink color. The ingredients typically include sweetened condensed milk or evaporated milk mixed with the syrup and served over crushed ice. It is commonly consumed as a cold, refreshing beverage in Thailand’s warm climate. Nom yen is widely available from street vendors, cafes, and restaurants. The drink is often paired with snacks or desserts and is popular across a range of age groups. Though traditionally flavored with sala syrup, variations using other fruit syrups can also be found.
