You may not be able to taste the white tea flavors coming through the mango but having white tea as a base still gives you all the benefits of drinking it straight, with of course the added benefits of the fruit juice. This iced tea is also great with black tea, if you’d like more of a tea flavor to shine through. Any way you can reimagine this recipe, this tropical treat is a terrific afternoon refreshment.
