Bright mango is the obvious hook, but the lychee is what makes this worth choosing: a soft, perfumed, almost floral sweetness that lifts it above the usual tropical-fruit green. And unlike the Tetley mango green, where the fruit buries the tea entirely, the green base here stays clean and present, so it drinks like a proper flavoured tea rather than juice. It does contain caffeine, so it is a daytime cup, and it is excellent over ice. The pick if you want tropical without losing the tea underneath.
Twinings Mango and Lychee Green Tea is the tropical flavoured green tea from the Twinings range, the standard green tea base flavoured with mango and lychee fruit notes, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the tropical-fruit alternative to a plain Pure Green Tea or a jasmine green tea.
The green tea provides the structural backbone with its soft vegetal note, while the mango and lychee flavourings sit on top as the tropical lead, the mango giving the rounded sweetness and the lychee bringing its distinctive perfumed-grape character that distinguishes this cup from a simple peach or pineapple green tea. Twinings have built the recipe so the fruit reads cleanly rather than tipping syrupy.
Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes.
A twenty-bag Twinings household pack at an accessible price, a sensible tropical green tea for anyone tired of plain Sencha and wanting something more interesting than the usual peach or pineapple flavoured green tea bag.

How Does Twinings Mango and Lychee Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 40g Compare to:
brew.
Ideal Brewing Conditions:
-
Brew it Hot: Boil the kettle then allow the water to cool for about 2 minutes to around 80 degrees Celsius to protect the delicate leaves.
-
Thermal Integrity: Do not use fully boiling water as this can scald the Green Tea and create immediate bitterness.
-
Steep Time: Steep for 2 to 3 minutes maximum then remove the bag to achieve the perfect fruity balance.
The Tea Master Brewing Instructions:
-
Measure: Place one individual tea bag in your favourite cup or pre warmed mug.
-
Pour: Add 200 millilitre of hot water at 80 degrees Celsius directly over the bag to activate the tropical oils.
-
Steep: Wait for 2 minutes to allow the natural Mango and Lychee flavouring to fully hydrate.
-
Enjoy: Best savoured plain for a sunny lift although it is exceptional when served as a chilled summer refresh.
The Tea Master Secret (Cold Brew & Iced Tea):
-
Iced Exotic Refresh: Brew a strong hot infusion using two bags in 150 millilitre of water. Once steeped, allow to cool completely then pour into a tall glass filled with ice. Add a slice of fresh peach and a sprig of mint for a crisp summer refresher.
-
Tropical Green Spritz: Brew one bag in 100 millilitre of hot water for 3 minutes. Once cooled, top with sparkling water and a touch of lime. The carbonation highlights the juicy mango notes for a bracing and sophisticated non alcoholic refreshment.
