Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Black tea bags
- 4 cups Water
- 2 pieces Fresh ripe mangoes
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (optional for sweetness)
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 cups Ice
- 6 pieces Mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Boil 4 cups of water in a medium-sized pot.
Add the black tea bags to the boiling water. Turn off the heat and let the tea steep for 5 minutes.
Remove the tea bags and set the brewed tea aside to cool to room temperature.
While the tea is cooling, peel and dice the mangoes. Blend the mango pieces in a blender until smooth to create mango puree.
If desired, strain the mango puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove any fibrous bits for a smoother texture.
Once the tea has cooled, combine the mango puree, sugar (if using), and lemon juice in a large pitcher. Stir well until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add the cooled tea into the pitcher and mix thoroughly.
Refrigerate the mango iced tea for at least 1 hour to chill completely.
When ready to serve, fill glasses with ice and pour the chilled mango iced tea over the ice.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired, and serve immediately.
