Sweet mango makes this drink a summertime favorite. This cold brew tea is a refreshing treat on a hot summer day.
Mango Cold Brew Tea
I tried this recipe a few times with different teas and it was very good each time, but the one made with English breakfast tea was my favorite and that’s the recipe I’m sharing with you.
I made a version with lemon and mint, replacing the lime and thyme and that was also excellent, so feel free to swap out the citrus and the herb.

My Fruit-Infused Cold Brew Tea Formula
Here is my cold brew tea formula:
Tea + 1 Fruit + 1 Citrus + 1 Herb
I used English breakfast tea as my tea, mango as my fruit, lime as my citrus, and thyme as my herb.
Recipe Notes
Use loose tea, tea sachets, or tea bags.
I used loose tea but you can use English breakfast tea tea bags or tea sachets.
Wash the mango, lime, and thyme.
Thoroughly wash to remove dirt and bacteria. Rinse under cold running water and rub with your hands. Don’t use dish soap.
Strain out solids after 24 hours.
Make sure you take it out all solids after 24 hours. Leaving any solids in the cold brew tea can accelerate bacterial growth.
Drink within 3 days.
Fruit-infused cold brew is best when consumed in 3 days after straining the solids since there is increased risk of bacterial growth. From the day you put the cold brew tea and fruit into the refrigerator to the day you have your last sip, it should be 4 days total.
Use filtered water.
I always recommend using filtered water to make tea.
Glass Containers
This cold brew tea recipe was made to fit perfectly inside this glass container.
You’ll need 2 containers of the same size with one for cold brewing, and another one to strain the drink into.
