Iced Garden Bouquet Tea with Mango Nectar Recipe
Garden Bouquet is a delicate green tea reminiscent of a fragrant garden with cornflowers, safflowers, and rose petals, including added hints of fruity delights of apricot and mango. We have added sweet mango nectar to this recipe in order to enhance summer flavors for a refreshing iced tea.
