thai iced milk tea

have you guys tried this drink? i love this stuff =), so im making it at home instead of constantly buying it at a tapioca place, but i can't seem to get it right:

bought some thai tea from a local asian market, brewed it, added sugar, ice and poured regular whole milk at the top.... tastes okay, but it seems creamier and darker orange in the restauraunts... am i missing something??
