minutesWhen we asked Ashley with Grinning Jupiter Jammery to create jams using our SoGo line of teas, she was all in. No surprise there, Ashley’s flavor combinations are always magical. Ashley chose Green Mango Tango Tea with its brisk Sencha Green Tea with bits of mango and marigold petals. This tea added such amazing dimension to jam. The scone didn’t know what hit it.
Ingredients
1 cup pureed pineapple
2 cups Green Mango Tango Tea
1/4 cup lemon juice
