with the warm Summer days just right around the corner, there’s something about ice cold refreshing homemade ice tea that hits the spot. i gave mine a little fruity spin to spruce it up a bit and finished it with a freshly sliced orange to infuse more bright flavor.
my family looooooves this orange mango ice tea, its gone in just a few hours. lets just say, i’ve been making a lot of orange mango ice tea lately.

Hello Olga. I used regular tea but black tea would work also. I hope you enjoy:)
Ok thank u, and how much mango nectar do I need? I don’t really understand it the way you wrote it with the 2 in front..
you will need 2…. 11.5 ounce cans Mango Nectar. They are sold by the can in supermarkets. Sorry for the confusion. Enjoy.
