Tropical Green Tea Jelly

teas.co.uk · 20 min plus setting · Serves 4

You'll need

• 3 tea bags of Tetley Green Tea with Mango and Passion Fruit
• 500ml just off boil water cooled to about 80C (boil, then rest the kettle for roughly 90 seconds)
• 3 tablespoons honey or sugar, to taste
• 4 leaves of gelatine, or 2 teaspoons agar agar for a vegetarian set
• Fresh mango and passion fruit pulp to set into the jelly

Method

1. Rest the boiled kettle for about 90 seconds, then steep three bags in 500ml of roughly 80C water for 4 minutes. Lift the bags out without squeezing.
2. Stir the honey into the hot tea. For gelatine, soak the leaves in cold water for 5 minutes, squeeze them out, then stir into the warm tea until dissolved. For agar, whisk it in and simmer for 2 minutes.
3. Divide the fresh fruit between glasses or a mould, then pour the warm tea over. Let it cool.
4. Chill for at least 4 hours, or until set. Serve as it is or turned out onto a plate.
5. Let the tea cool until it just starts to thicken before adding the fruit, so the pieces stay suspended instead of sinking.
