Mango Iced Tea

Mango Iced Tea, the delicious fruit flavored tea made for those sweltering hot days with the king of fruits to cool off and feel refreshed.

Tea, for me has been the strong hot and brewing dairy filled, frothy cup  all the rest sounds weak and watered down flat drink and cold oh no noo. I opt for water when plain iced tea is offered  I just cannot not stand the idea of tea getting cold, blame it on the place where I come from we just drink it piping hot nothing else.  But everything changed when my girly started liking iced tea.  She kept saying Mom u should try, never dismiss anything without trying!!
