Ingredients

  • 6 cups of water
  • 4 tea bags preferably black tea
  • 2 ripe mangoes peeled and flesh sliced from the seeds
  • A few fresh mint leaves to garnish

Instructions

For 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

For Cold Brew:

  • Add water, tea bags and mango slices to a large pitcher or jug
  • 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
  • Serve over ice and garnish with a few fresh mint leaves and a slice of mango
