Mango Iced Tea

Iced tea is a refreshing change. While iced tea with lemon is great on its own, flavouring it with fresh mango puree makes it extra special. 

Ingredients
For Syrup:
  1 cup sugar
  1 cup water

The rest:
  2 teabags
  3 cups boiling water
  1 cup fresh mango puree
  1 teaspoon lemon juice
  A pinch of salt
  Ice, to serve

Method
1. To make the syrup: Add the sugar and water to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer for about 3 minutes. Remove from stove and set aside to cool.
2. Add the teabags to the 3 cups of boiling water, cover, and leave to brew for 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Remove the teabags and discard. Leave the tea to cool.
4. In a large jug, mix together the cooled tea, mango puree, lemon juice and salt.
5. Sweeten the tea with the simple syrup, according to your taste. I added 4 tablespoons, but you can add more or less according to your preference.
6. Refrigerate the iced tea until you’re ready to serve.
7. Serve over ice.
