Blackberry iced tea is really easy to make. The flavor is great and using real fruit has to give you some extra health benefits.
Ingredients:
4 cups of hot black tea (such as orange pekoe or Darjeeling)
1 cup of blackberries
honey to taste or 3/4 cup of sugar
- In a bowl combine the hot tea with the blackberries and let steep for an hour.
- With the back of a wooden spoon, crush the berries in the tea and then pour through a fine strainer into a pitcher. I crushed mine again in the strainer.
- Add honey to taste or use sugar.
- I then pour this warm tea over a half of pitcher of ice.
- Chill for at least 2 hours and serve.
Enjoy!
