Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups water divided
  • 2 black tea bags
  • 1 cup ripe mango peeled and diced (about 1 large mango)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or sugar adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Ice for serving
  • Fresh mint or mango slices for garnish (optional)

Method
 

  1. Brew the Tea: In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Remove from heat, add the tea bags, and steep for 5 minutes. Discard the tea bags and let the concentrate cool slightly.
  2. Make Mango Puree: While the tea is steeping, add the diced mango, honey (or sugar), and lemon juice to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
  3. Combine: In a large pitcher, combine the warm tea concentrate and the mango puree. Stir well until fully mixed.
  4. Dilute and Chill: Add the remaining 3 cups of cold water to the pitcher and stir.
  5. Serve: Fill glasses with ice, pour the mango iced tea over top, and garnish with fresh mint or a slice of mango.
