Our Low FODMAP Iced White Tea With Mango is simply chilled low FODMAP white tea, optionally sweetened, served with low FODMAP amounts of fresh, juicy mango.

FODMAP Information
Our recipes are based on Monash University and FODMAP Friendly science.
- Mango: Mango has been lab tested by both Monash and FODMAP Friendly. Monash has determined that a Green Light low FODMAP serving size is 40 g, about 1/5 cup, cubed. FODMAP Friendly gives it a “Fail” at 1 medium or 207 g.
- Sugar: Monash University and FODMAP Friendly have both lab tested white, granulated sugar. Monash states that a Green Light low FODMAP serving size of white sugar is 1/4 cup (50 g). FODMAP Friendly simply states that they have tested 1 tablespoon and that it is low FODMAP. Regular granulated white sugar is sucrose, which is a disaccharide made up of equal parts glucose and fructose. Sucrose is broken down and absorbed efficiently in the small intestine.
- White Tea: Monash University has lab tested white tea and it is Green Light low FODMAP in portions of 250 ml when brewed strongly with water.
Please always refer to the Monash University & FODMAP Friendly smartphone apps for the most up-to-date lab tested information. As always, your tolerance is what counts; please eat accordingly. The ultimate goal of the low FODMAP diet is to eat as broadly as possible, without triggering symptoms, for the healthiest microbiome.
