A delightful twist on a classic iced tea, infused with the natural sweetness of berries.
Combine the mixed berries, filtered water, and granulated sugar in a saucepan.
Use fresh or frozen berries for the best flavor.
Simmer the mixture over medium heat until the berries break apart and release their juices.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Strain the berry mixture through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a pitcher, pressing lightly to extract the liquid.
Avoid pressing too hard to keep the liquid clear.
Brew the black tea and let it cool to room temperature.
Use your favorite tea blend for a personalized touch.
Combine the cooled tea with the berry infusion in the pitcher and stir well.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for a more refreshing drink.
Serve the iced tea in tall glasses over ice cubes.
Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a slice of lemon for extra flair.
