Hibiscus tea, famously known as Agua de Jamaica in Mexico, is more than just a deliciously tart drink; it’s loaded with health benefits! This vibrant, ruby-red tea is rich in anthocyanins (antioxidants that help fight inflammation, protect your cells from damage, and support heart health). Paired with the juicy sweetness of mango, which is packed with vitamins A and C, this Mango Hibiscus Iced Tea is a perfect blend of flavor and nutrition. The tangy notes of hibiscus complement the tropical flavors of mango, creating a refreshing drink that’s not only delicious but also boosts your immune system and overall well-being
Plus, it’s naturally vegan, caffeine-free, and perfect for all ages!
Ingredients:
- Dried Hibiscus Flowers – Known for their tangy, cranberry-like flavor and deep red color, dried hibiscus flowers are the key ingredient in this tea. Popular in many cultures, particularly in Latin America and the Caribbean where it’s enjoyed as Agua de Jamaica, hibiscus brings a bold, refreshing tartness that perfectly complements the sweetness of mango.
- Boiling Water – Essential for steeping the hibiscus flowers and extracting their bold, tangy flavor. The hot water helps release the antioxidants and vibrant color of the hibiscus.
- Large Ripe Mango – A juicy mango adds natural sweetness and a tropical twist to the tea. Mango is packed with vitamins A and C, which help boost the immune system and add a luscious texture to the drink.
- Lemon Juice – Freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a zesty brightness that balances the hibiscus’s tartness and enhances the iced tea’s overall flavor profile.
- Agave Syrup – A natural sweetener with a mild flavor that dissolves easily, agave syrup is a great way to add sweetness without overpowering the delicate balance of flavors. It’s a lower-glycemic option compared to traditional sugar.
- Water – Just a splash to help the mango puree blend.
- Ice to Serve – One of the most frequent questions I get is how I make my pellet ice. I don’t have any fancy machines, I just use this ice tray I got on Amazon. It comes with 4 ice trays, a scoop, and a convenient box to store the ice. I love using this ice when I’m making iced tea, mocktails, or iced coffees.
One of the best things about this recipe is how customizable it is. You can add other fruits like pineapple or peach for a different twist or even a splash of sparkling water for some fizz. However you choose to enjoy it, this Mango Hibiscus Iced Tea is sure to be a hit.
