Prepare the Mango Puree:
Begin by washing, peeling, and chopping the ripe mangoes. Use a blender to puree the mangoes until smooth. Once done, refrigerate the mango puree to keep it cool for the tea preparation. -
Brew the Tea:
In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Once the water is hot, dip the 2 tea bags into the water and turn off the heat. Allow the tea bags to steep for a few minutes, then let the water cool completely. After it has cooled, remove the tea bags and refrigerate the brewed tea until chilled. -
Blend the Mango Iced Tea:
Once the brewed tea and mango puree are chilled, it’s time to blend the ingredients. In a blender, combine the chilled tea, mango puree, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and sugar (to taste). Blend until everything is smooth and well combined. -
Serve and Garnish:
Pour the prepared Mango Iced Tea into serving glasses. Add plenty of ice cubes, a few slices of lemon, and fresh mint leaves for a fragrant garnish. For an extra touch, garnish with a few slices of fresh mango if desired. -
