Ingredients

2 large mangos just ripe, not too soft
2 teaspoons fresh ginger peeled, grated very fine, or minced
3/4 cup filtered water
4 bags Ginger Turmeric Herbal Tea I use Trader Joe's Organic
2/3 cups pure cane sugar I use organic
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

Instructions

Mangoes:

Slice mangoes off their pits, and peel them. Cut into chunks and purée in a small food processor with the grated ginger.
Purée for a full minute, scrape down, process 30 more seconds.

Tea:

Boil water - measure 3/4 cups in a pyrex measuring cup - add 4 tea bags of Ginger Turmeric Herbal Tea. Let stand about 20 minutes to blossom.
Squeeze the tea bags to extract all its flavors - strain into a one quart non reactive pot. Add sugar and lime juice. Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer and cook 3 minutes to dissolve the sugar.
Remove from the stove, let cool down 5 minutes.
Add the mango puree and stir well with a rubber spatula. Add to a bowl to fit, cover well and refrigerate until cold.
Process in an ice cream maker.

Hint:

If you desire the creamiest consistency:
Make tea first, continue with syrup; (tea, sugar lime juice.) Cool 10 minutes - add mango chunks, ginger and the tea syrup to a blender; whirl 2 minutes until creamy, refrigerate. Process in ice cream machine when cool.
