An ancient Hindu legend recounts the story of the mango tree growing from the ashes of the sun princess who had been incinerated by an evil sorceress. When the mango ripened and fell to the ground, the beautiful sun princess emerged. Our new Mango Green Tea combines the goodness of green tea with the flavor of perfectly ripened mangoes. Sun princess sold separately.

Mangoes originated in Southeast Asia, where they had been cultivated for over 4,000 years. Since their discovery, mango groves have spread to many parts of the world, though mostly the tropical and sub-tropical climates. There are over 1,000 different varieties of the mango plant in existence, and India alone produces half of the world's supply. Mangoes are used widely in the culinary world, from sweet sticky rice, to delicate chutneys, to spicy and savory pickles. It's also an important part of non-food life in several cultures; both the fruit and leaves are used for decoration, religious ceremonies and weddings.
