To make passion fruit mangosteen tea topped with aloe vera, prepare the following ingredients:

• 600 g mangosteen flesh (about 10 - 15 large fruits)

• 400 g passion fruit pulp (about 8 - 12 fruits)

• 300 g sugar

• 3 g salt

• 25 g jasmine tea

• 1.5 liters of water

• 2 - 3 tablespoons of pre-processed aloe vera from GC Food per serving

• Sugar syrup (prepared in advance)

• Ice cubes

Ingredient selection tip: When choosing mangosteen, look for fruits that are round and evenly shaped with fresh green stems. Avoid bruised, damaged, or pest-affected fruits to ensure the best aroma and flavor in your tea.

2. How to make passion fruit mangosteen tea with aloe vera

2.1. Step 1: Prepare the mangosteen

To begin, rinse the mangosteens thoroughly to remove any dirt from the peel, then use a knife to gently score a shallow line around the fruit horizontally to make it easier to open. Carefully separate the rind and scoop out the white mangosteen flesh inside, setting it aside for the next steps in the recipe.

To maintain its bright white color and natural freshness, soak the mangosteen flesh in a bowl of ice water mixed with 1 tablespoon of salt for about 3 - 5 minutes. Once soaked, remove the mangosteen, rinse again with clean water to eliminate any saltiness, and let it drain well.

2.2. Step 2: Prepare the passion fruit mixture

Start by rinsing the passion fruits, cutting them in half, and scooping out all the pulp inside. Transfer the pulp to a pan, add 300 g of sugar (adjust to taste) and 3 g of salt, then simmer over medium heat until well combined.

Once the sugar has fully dissolved and the mixture begins to thicken, turn off the heat and let it cool naturally at room temperature. When the passion fruit mixture has completely cooled, add the prepared mangosteen from Step 1 and gently mix to combine. Refrigerate the mixture for 3 - 4 hours, allowing the mangosteen to absorb the sweet and tangy flavors of the passion fruit.

2.3. Step 3: Brew and mix the tea

Bring 1.5 liters of water to about 90°C, then steep 25 g of jasmine tea or oolong tea for around 15 minutes. Once the tea has finished brewing, strain out the leaves to obtain a clear, aromatic tea base. Next, add a few fresh mangosteen segments to a shaker and gently muddle them to release their signature sweet-tart flavor.

Then, pour in the brewed tea, along with sugar and lemon juice (or calamansi) adjusted to your taste, then shake well until everything is evenly combined. Once the sugar has fully dissolved, add the passion fruit mixture and a few ice cubes, and continue shaking until a light foam forms on the surface. Finally, pour the tea into a glass, add more ice, and top with mangosteen, passion fruit preserve, and diced aloe vera to finish.
