Ingredients
– 1 cup mango puree, made from fresh ripe mango or thawed frozen mango chunks
– 2 cups boiling water
– 2 to 3 bags of black tea (quantity depends on tea variety)
– Honey or other sweetener to taste (optional)
Instructions
1-If using frozen mango chunks: let them thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes. If using fresh mango, peel and cut it into chunks to start with fresh flavors.
2-Puree the mango chunks in a blender or food processor until smooth, creating that creamy base we love.
3-Pour the 2 cups of boiling water over the 2 to 3 bags of black tea and steep them covered for 5 minutes to get a strong, flavorful tea.
4-Remove the tea bags and add the 1 cup of mango puree to the brewed tea, sticking to a ratio of about two parts tea to one part mango puree for the best balance.
5-Cover the mixture and refrigerate until cool, which takes roughly 30 minutes, to achieve that icy refreshment.
6-Strain the tea through a sieve or cheesecloth, pressing out as much liquid as possible from the mango pulp for a smooth finish.
7-Sweeten the tea to taste with honey, sugar, or your preferred sweetener if desired, and then serve over ice for the ultimate chill.
