Tea Forté’s Mango Melange is an exceptional herbal tisane bringing together a lush blend of tropical flavours. Featuring mango, ginger, pineapple and white hibiscus, this infusion incorporates pieces of apple, mango and organic orange peel to bring the islands to you, wherever you are.
With each sip, the blend’s complexity grows, revealing hints of marigold flowers, chicory root and a chorus of natural flavours harmonising together in soothing tones. Both sweet and slightly tart, Mango Melange is a delight any time of year, although its sunny disposition lends itself perfectly to summer. Not surprisingly, it works well over ice, making for a relaxing and refreshing beverage on a warm day. This herbal tisane is free of caffeine, making it an ideal treat any time of day or night.
Mango, a stone fruit known for its juicy flesh and lush flavour, is the national fruit of India, Pakistan, and the Philippines, while the mango tree is the national tree of Bangladesh. Native to South Asia and now grown around the world, its production is largely centered in India and China. Its texture varies slightly depending on where it’s grown, but its distinctive sweetness remains constant, as do its high levels of vitamin C.
When enjoying a cup of Mango Melange, a spoonful of sugar or honey brings the mango front and center amid the swirl of tropical influences, although tea purists may also enjoy it simply steeped in water without any additions.
