Description

A refreshing mango iced tea perfect for summer afternoons, combining sweet mango and rich black tea.


Ingredients

  • 2 Black Tea Bags (or 2 tsp loose leaf tea)
  • 1 Ripe Mango (or frozen mango cubes)
  • 4 cups Water (divided)
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • Ice


Instructions

  1. Combine 2 cups of boiled water and the tea bags in a large pitcher. Let them steep for about 10 minutes.
  2. Heat the remaining 2 cups of water along with the diced mango in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  3. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, mashing the mango to create a smooth puree.
  4. Strain the mango mixture into the pitcher with the steeped tea, discarding the solids.
  5. Add honey to the mix and stir well to combine everything.
  6. Allow the tea to cool and then serve it over ice, garnished with fresh mango slices.

Notes

For variations, consider adding a splash of lime juice for tang or mint leaves for an herbal twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
