Mango Iced Tea (Edit recipe)

Warmer weather calls for cold drinks in the shade and this Mango Ice Tea does not disappoint. When mango season rolls around my local supermarkets are overflowing with delicious mangoes. And the sales are unbelievable. Mango is one of my favorite fruits and it is no surprise that it is now one of my children's favorite as well.

Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Hot brew

Add the water, tea bags and mango slices (reserving a few slices for a garnish) to a large saucepan and bring to a boil on high heat
Continue to boil for 10 to 15 minutes or until the tea brews to your liking
Then remove from the heat and let cool completely

Cold brew

Place in the refrigerator overnight to brew or draw (as we say in Guyana)

Finishing up the iced tea

After brewing the tea using either the hot or cold method remove the tea bags and discard
Then you may pour the tea over a sieve to remove the mango slices or add everything to a blender and blend until smooth
