Tangy Sweet Aam Panna Iced Tea | Raw Mango Pulp Iced Tea

Make ice from the three cups of water in advance.

Wash the mango and boil or roast it till soft. Cool and take out the pulp in a ceramic or glass bowl. Let it cool.

Once cool, put the pulp in a blender and add sugar to it. Blend till a smooth texture is obtained. Take it out in a bowl. Mix crushed mint leaves and Refrigerate.

In a pot boil 3 cups of water. Once it begins to boil add CTC tea leaves and then turns off the flame to add the Darjeeling tea leaves. Cover and let it steep for 3-4 minutes.

Take out the ice and crush it properly. Place it in a pitcher and pour the thick tea brew to quicken the cooling process as Darjeeling tea changes in flavour and taste if allowed to cool on its own for a longer time.

Once the tea is cool keep it in the fridge.

In a serving jug add the aam Panna and top it with cold tea brew. Check for sweetness and add honey or sugar syrup if required. Tea should taste tangy so do not sweeten it too much.

Add more ice cubes to the glasses when ready to serve.

Garnish with lemon wedges/ raw mango slices and mint springs.
