Mango Sorbet – A Refreshing Summer Treat
One of my favorite summer beverages is Teavana’s Moroccan Mint green tea–sweetened and iced. So refreshing! When I was looking at my last batch of mangoes wondering what kind of frozen treat to make with them, I thought they would pair nicely with the flavor of this tea. I adapted David Lebovitz’s Mango Sorbet recipe from The Perfect Scoop to this one using the Moroccan Mint green tea. Enjoy a bowl of this delicious Moroccan mango mojito sorbet this summer!
