Ingredients
  

4 black tea bags (or green tea bags, for a lighter flavor)

4 cups boiling water

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced

1/2 cup sugar (adjust according to taste)

1 cup fresh lime juice (about 5-6 limes)

4 cups cold water

Ice cubes

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Mango slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Brew the Tea: In a large heatproof pitcher, steep the tea bags in boiling water for about 5-7 minutes. Remove the tea bags and let the tea cool to room temperature.

    Prepare Mango Puree: While the tea is cooling, blend the diced mangoes in a blender until smooth. If desired, strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve to remove any fibrous bits. You should have about 1 to 1.5 cups of mango puree.

      Sweeten the Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the mango puree, sugar, and fresh lime juice. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

        Combine: Once the brewed tea has cooled, pour it into the mango and lime mixture. Add the 4 cups of cold water to dilute the sweetness and flavor to your preference.

          Chill: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours to chill completely.

            Serve: To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the mango iced tea over the ice and garnish with fresh mint leaves and mango slices if desired.

              Enjoy: Sip and enjoy the refreshing tropical flavors of your homemade mango iced tea!
