Dried fruit to taste: III parts

For this one, I decided to make the blend with the intention for being an ice tea, so, I thought a mostly fruity taste would suit better. I picked orange, mango and pinneaple for a fresh and tropical taste, but you can pick whatever you like.

Please remember to make any necessary changes!

this tea can be served hot or cold which normally i find to be false advertising and a sham, but it rly works with this tea! it’s great for just a quick pick me up drink and it gives a nice sense of security, like somehow everything’s just gonna be ok, ya know? also i highly recommend enjoying a cup of this outside in the sun if you can
