Recipe Description
This Blackberry Mint Iced Green Tea is so delicious and refreshing, and is a wonderful drink for a warm summer day.
We are in right in the middle of a beautiful, sunny and warm summer here in New England, and one of my favorite warm weather drinks is iced tea. I love making my own iced teas and adding different combinations of fruits and fresh herbs.
To make this delicious, refreshing Blackberry Mint Iced Green Tea, I start by allowing the green tea bags and some fresh mint to steep in boiling water for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, I puree fresh blackberries in a blender and strain the mixture to remove the seeds.
Once the tea and mint are done steeping, I discard the tea bags and mint leaves, and combine the tea mixture with the blackberry mixture along with a little bit of honey. I allow this mixture to cool down a bit, then serve the tea over ice along with some more fresh mint, and garnish with some additional blackberries. The resulting Blackberry Mint Iced Green Tea is absolutely delicious and so refreshing.
