How to import MathJax in ESM modules?

I’m trying to import and use MathJax within a browser-based ESM module using various flavors of importing including the following:

import * as MathJax from 'mathjax/es5/tex-svg'; 

import 'mathjax/es5/tex-svg'; 

Attempted usage is as follows:

MathJax.tex2svg(String.raw`${text}`);

This throws a TypeError stating MathJax2.tex2svg is not a function. I installed MathJax using:

npm install mathjax

How can one import and use MathJax in a browser-based ESM environment where the dependency is managed by npm. If it’s at all helpful, I’m using esbuild for bundling.
