I love mangoes & I love silky, creamy desserts – so a mango panna cotta dessert is right up my alley. In fact, the only way to make it better would be to turn it into a tea – which I’ve done! YUM!
I created my own recipe of essence to come up with this Italian dessert in a teacup & blended them with fresh Chinese Sencha & sweet mangoes plus some vanilla bean for even more of a silky, creamy note. This blend is not only delicious, it’s also vegan, gluten-free, allergen-free, organic & all natural!
organic ingredients: green tea, mangoes, vanilla beans & natural flavors
more about this tea: I’ve been wanting a creamy mango tea. The first thing that came to mind was to reblend our yummy Mango Ice Cream Black tea, but to be perfectly honest, I already have quite a few black teas planned for the next couple of months & so then I thought – how about my Mango Sticky Rice Genmaicha? A really good mango tea, for sure – but I recently reblended that one (didn’t I reblend it for the Christmas box?) so, I browsed the web for some interesting mango recipes & panna cotta struck my fancy – because it’s creamy & mango-y. Perfect!
This one’s seriously good! It has a nice mango note & a deliciously silky, creamy note that I’ve been craving. Really good!
to brew: shake the pouch well – the tiny bits of vanilla bean will shift toward the bottom of the pouch & you want some of those tiny vanilla beans in your measurement! Use 3g of tea to 12oz of hot water (175°F). Steep for 2 minutes, strain & enjoy.
serving suggestion: I find this is delightful served without sweeteners, but the mango is sweeter with just a little bit of sugar (less than ½ teaspoon per serving). I like this hot – it makes a comforting & cozy dessert tea – but it’s even better (in my opinion) when cold-brewed & served iced!
