Lemongrass and Mango Breakfast Compote (Tropical Sun)
Mango and pineapple simmered with strong lemongrass tea and lime, a fresh breakfast compote for yoghurt or porridge.

Simmering mango and pineapple in a strong brew of Tropical Sun Lemongrass turns out a fresh, citrussy breakfast compote: the lemongrass cuts the sweetness of the tropical fruit and a squeeze of lime keeps it lively. Spoon it warm or cold over yoghurt, porridge or granola.
