Description
Mango Spice Black Tea is a bold and fruity blend with a gently spiced finish. We start with organic black tea and layer in sweet apples, golden calendula petals, and ripe organic mango chunks that we freeze dry in-house to capture their full flavor and freshness. A hint of cinnamon, ginger, and licorice root brings warmth and balance to the juicy mango profile.
Our spices are ground fresh for every small batch to ensure a bright, full-bodied cup. This tea is smooth and flavorful hot but truly shines when served over ice. It is one of our favorite ways to bring a little tropical sunshine into the day.
Ingredients:
Organic black tea, organic apples, organic freeze dried mango, organic cinnamon, organic ginger, organic licorice root, natural flavor, calendula petals
Available in a tin with 4.0 oz of loose tea, a tin with 12 pyramid tea bags (our pyramid tea bags are made from a plant-based fiber material and contain no plastic.), or a 9g sample packet.

I was so excited to try this one! This tea made such a refreshing cup of iced tea with the bold flavor of the black tea, the sweet mango, and warm spices. The mango and ginger stood out the most. It all paired extremely well together! The sweet and spicy notes were perfectly balanced. It’s so flavorful and delicious. I tried it sweetened and unsweetened. Both were really good, but I preferred this with a little extra sugar. I loved this tea! This was my favorite of the three teas, and will definitely buy more! It makes the perfect iced tea to drink during summer ☀️
Highly recommend!
I used 3 tsp of tea and steeped at 212° for 3 minutes. I added 1 tsp of sugar while it was still hot and put in the fridge overnight. Poured over ice the next day.

I steeped 3 grams in 12 ounces of 212 degree water for 3 minutes before storing it in my fridge overnight to have the next day. This makes a delightful fruity iced black tea with a bit of a kick! The black tea makes a nice smooth base for the juicy mango to shine, the apple provides the sweetness, and the cinnamon, ginger, and licorice add a touch of spice. I appreciate the warming spices in this tea, as you don’t always see them in iced teas! I found that I tasted the spices a bit more when I had this tea plain, and I tasted the fruity notes more when I added a little sugar. I liked it both ways!

It’s another sweltering Texas day, making a cool refreshing iced tea the perfect remedy. I prepared this as a hot tea and then chilled it in the fridge overnight. The combination of refreshing mango and the subtle kick of heat from the ginger was truly delightful. A fabulous and invigorating combination.

I cold-brewed this tea with two heaping “perfect” teaspoons worth of tea in my 20 ounce Weck jar. Are you dreaming of a tropical vacation? Be prepared to be whisked away beachside with this brew. As a cold brew, this is super mango-y. I think the addition of the apple really helps to bring out the mango (I don’t taste any straightforward apple here). There is a hint of spice that comes through thanks to the cinnamon and ginger. This is so tropical and so refreshing; I absolutely loved this on a hot afternoon.
One side note—I typically do not enjoy tea blends with licorice in them. I could not taste it in this blend, and couldn’t even tell it was there, so that was another instant win for me!
I highly recommend this one, especially if you love tropical teas.

Mango Spice from Inspired Leaf is my favorite out of the three I sampled. I was excited to discover its remarkable flavor profile and beautiful color. This tea yielded a revitalizing cup of iced tea, masterfully blending the bold flavor of black tea, the luscious sweetness of mango, and the comforting warmth of cinnamon. The mango and ginger notes harmonize in perfect unison. The balance of sweet and spicy elements was truly exceptional, creating a truly unforgettable tea experience. I enjoyed it iced sweetened with sugar, elevating its flavor. It’s probably amazing as a hot tea too. Ingredients comprise Organic black tea, organic apples, organic freeze-dried mango, organic cinnamon, organic ginger, organic licorice root, natural flavor, and calendula petals.

I chose to cold brew this tea overnight to keep the black tea’s tannins soft and smooth, and the result was delightful. The mango truly takes center stage, bright and juicy, while a kick of cinnamon and ginger adds a warming finish. It’s refreshing over ice, yet I can already imagine how comforting it will be served hot during the holidays. Versatile and full of character, this blend is a must-try for anyone who loves the pairing of mango with spice.

Mango spice is a black tea blend that contains apples, freeze dried mango, cinnamon, ginger, licorice root, natural flavor, and calendula petals. It is a visually appealing loose leaf tea/work of art and the flavor of this one was exquisite.
I had it as an iced tea, first hot brewed, and absolutely loved it. It was my favorite of the 3 blends provided from the brand. It had the perfect amount of fruity flavor and spice. It was quite sweet for having no added sweetener, in the good way. I definitely didn’t need to add any on my own as I loved it as is. Really look forward to trying more of this brand.

I made this tea iced and thoroughly enjoyed it! My teenage son actually drank the rest of my cup when I wasn’t looking, which shows just how inviting it smelled. 😂 The flavor is refreshing with a natural sweetness from the mango and apple, perfectly balanced by the cozy warmth of cinnamon and ginger. I love that it has just the right amount of spice without being overpowering—it’s fruity, sweet, yet still cozy and satisfying. A cup that feels both uplifting and comforting, this is a delightful new blend for me that I’m excited to try it again!

Today’s iced tea was a masterful blend of fruit and spices, offering a delicious autumnal flavor with a tropical twist, courtesy of Inspired Leaf in picturesque Bend, OR.
Organic ingredients, including rich black tea, apple, freeze-dried mango, cinnamon, ginger, licorice, calendula petals, and natural flavoring, combined to create an outstanding flavor profile that perfectly balanced sunshine and spice. The mango and apples added a sweet fruitiness, while the spiciness was warm and zesty. Notably, the licorice was expertly blended, a testament to Inspired Leaf’s skillful craftsmanship. I look forward to ordering more.

I absolutely love fresh mangoes, so I was really excited when I opened my packet of Mango Spice and inhaled the fresh scent of fruity deliciousness!!
I’m not always a fan of mixing fruits and spices in a tea; for whatever reason I find that can be a hit or miss for me. But this one is a 110% hit! The flavor of the mango is masterful perfection, from first sip unto the last. And the spices here are predominantly sweet: namely, cinnamon, then a bit of ginger. There’s a touch of licorice – at least it says that on the label – which isn’t an ingredient I can distinctly taste… and the black tea base is so understated that you hardly notice it’s there; it supports the rest of the blend by giving it a hint of depth, but stays out of the way of everything else. It really really works! There is some serious tea synergy at work here. I must acquire more for my cold brew collection!

This one is a treat! I brewed it hot, then chilled it and poured it over ice—perfect for a sunny afternoon.
The bold black tea base pairs beautifully with the juicy, vibrant mango flavor, which is the real star here. The light touch of cinnamon and ginger adds gentle warmth on the back end without overpowering, while a natural sweetness rounds everything out. The overall effect is smooth and creamy-like, making it wonderfully drinkable.
Definitely a blend I’ll be reaching for again.
