Recipe: Malunggay Iced Tea

I've written here before how to make a malunggay tea freshly handpicked from our vegetable garden. In addition, I also posted a recipe made healthier by adding malunggay powder to the dish. This time, I'll be sharing a successful experiment mom and I made (since we're all trying our best to live healthy), may I present to you our Homemade Malunggay Iced Tea.

Malunggay Iced Tea

Ingredients:

a pitcher of Malunggay Tea, refrigerated (click this post on How to Make Malunggay Tea)

10-12 kalamansi

brown sugar

honey

Simply mix all the ingredients according to your desired sweetness. Best serve with ice.

Mom and I have been trying to convince my younger brothers on drinking the hot malunggay tea but they wouldn't. After trying on this recipe and having those burst of sweet flavors and not telling them that it's actually malunggay tea, we've finally got them to drink and they actually love it! It's a cheaper and healthier substitute for those sachet packs of ready to drink iced teas. 

Recipe: Easy to Cook Ginataang Tilapia with Malunggay powder

Ginataang Tilapia is White fish cooked in creamy coconut

What makes this dish extra special is the additional malunggay powder, reason why its soup turned green. For those who are curious about the taste, don't fret because it still tastes like any other ginataang tilapia but with extra nutrients coming from the malunggay :)

1 tsp Malunggay powder
