DH loves mango. Like, a lot. Like, he gets it in bulk from Costco. So I’ve met a lot of mangoes. Fortunately, I like them too (not the buy-in-bulk level but still well enough). Anyway, this tea does taste like mango. Not quite like the super-ripe, making-a-little-puddle-of-sticky-syrup-in-the-fridge mango. More like the mostly-ripe-but-a-lighter-yellow-color-and-a-little-fibrous-towards-the-center mango. These types of mangoes are still good mangoes, they just have a slightly different flavor. And that flavor is pretty much exactly how this tea tastes.

Hehe, that’s a very specific type of mango. Identification must be one of the benefits of being married to one.

What can I say, I’ve eaten a LOT of mangoes and can ID the tastes of many types now! Hehe! Pretty much the only time we go by a display of mangoes at Costco without picking up a box is when they are either hard as rocks or there are rotten ones. So like twice. And we go to Costco 1 or 2 times a month (thankfully they don’t always have mango).

By the way, they sell their mangoes 9 to a box. That’s right. Nine.

I’ve eaten. A LOT. of mangoes.

hahaha you’ve got me beat but I’ve been known to delve right into the pre-cut mango boxes 3-4x a day. Yup. Love them. Can’t keep my hands off em! Yeah, 9 just looks like too much at once BUT I’m revisiting that idea now :)

Auggy

9 seems like a lot but it’s really not that bad… well, assuming you have at least one mango obsessed person in the house. We cut a couple up for lunches and snacks then put the others on a paper towel in the fruit bin. The paper towel is there because as they ripen even more, they will goo out a little sticky syrup. At that point you’d really think they are overripe/rotten and should be tossed, but if you cut them up then, they are insanely sweet and rich and almost orange inside, they are so dark. The closest I’ve gotten to the fresh mango they served us in Hawaii. But it takes them a bit to get to the gooing stage so it gives us enough time to eat all 9.

And now that Jillian has mentioned dried mango strips, I might have to pull out the food dehydrator next time we get a box o’ mangoes.

The only mango I ever ate tasted like an evergreen tree. Then I looked up that they do grow on evergreen trees. Is this a common flavor, or…? Cause I LOVE mango sorbet.

Auggy

Hmm. I honestly have never thought of that taste as I had mango but now I want to go buy a box and test it out. I would say atypical since I think they would be sweeter and less juniper-like (which is pretty much what my brain associates as ‘evergreen’) but there might be a taste in there that could come across as that… I’d have to think of it while eating it though. If that makes any kind of sense.

Jillian

@Teaplz: They tend to get that pine-like flavour when they’re a little bit under-ripe.

teaplz

Jillian, I had a feeling! I know next to nothing about mangoes, so that’s probably what happened. It tasted really yummy though… but the pine flavor was a bit off-putting.

Yep! Today I am drinking Mango Magnus. This is one of my favorite mango teas. It is the perfect blend of black tea with an accurate taste of mango. Very smooth.
