Berry Iced Tea is like having all your favorite berries in one cup! I love the flavor of juicy and sweet blackberries, but I can’t stand the crunch from its seeds, therefore when I buy blackberries a huge amount of it goes into making berry iced tea.

This tea has other amazing benefits besides the delicious taste. It helps to keep you looking young, I’m not joking! Berries are known for purifying and tightening the skin.

Berries help your digestive system get rid of toxins and is good for your brain too. As you can see this berry iced tea is a girl’s best friend.

If you don’t want to drink this berry iced tea, then turn it into popsicles! What a great way to have your kids consume fruit and enjoy it! You can also try my Virgin Mojito.

Sweet Berry Iced Tea

You might feel that the amount of sugar used in this berry iced tea is a lot, but the idea from having iced tea is to fill your glass with ice so the berry iced tea will get diluted a little and you won’t be consuming a lot of sugar. The berries you have might be all sweet, but some might be a little sour, depending on the amount of sweetness the berries have to play a rule in how much sugar you might want to use or omit.

    I thought this tea was fabulous. My only suggestions wld be to add lemon juice to your liking and the same for the sugar. I made this according to the recipe less the 1/4 c of sugar and it was delicious. I also made a second batch and added it to a pitcher of fresh green tea…outstanding both ways
