A tropical iced tea with sweet pineapple and a gentle spark of fresh ginger.

How to Make

1. Brew the tea. Place the Bella Coola Tea in a tea infuser or teapot. Pour 1½ cups of freshly boiled water over the tea and allow it to steep for 7–10 minutes. A longer steep will create a deeper, fruitier flavour that will remain noticeable after the ice is added.
2. Sweeten if desired. Remove the infuser or strain out the loose tea leaves. While the tea is still warm, stir in honey or simple syrup. Begin with one teaspoon, taste, and add more only if needed.
3. Chill the tea. Allow the brewed tea to cool at room temperature for approximately 10 minutes. Transfer it to the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes.
4. Prepare the glasses. Fill two tall glasses generously with ice. Add a few fresh mango pieces or thin orange slices between the ice cubes for a colorful presentation.
5. Create the mango layer. Divide the mango nectar evenly between the two glasses. Slowly add the orange juice over the mango nectar.
6. Add the tea. Gently pour the chilled Bella Coola Tea over the back of a spoon into each glass. Pouring slowly helps preserve the beautiful sunrise effect before the drink is stirred.
7. Garnish and serve. Finish each glass with a mango slice, orange wheel or sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately and stir before drinking to combine all the tropical fruit flavours.
