Directions
- Brew the Green Tea
Heat the water to 75–80°C (167–176°F) — do not boil.
Add the green tea bags and steep for 2–3 minutes maximum.
Remove the tea bags without squeezing and let the tea cool to lukewarm. - Sweeten Lightly
While the tea is still warm, stir in 2 Tbsp honey until fully dissolved.
Taste and add up to 1 additional tablespoon only if needed.
Let the tea cool to room temperature. - Prepare the Berries
Hull and slice strawberries if using.
Leave raspberries and blueberries whole.
Do not crush, muddle, or cook the berries. - Cold Berry Infusion
Add the prepared berries to the cooled tea.
Refrigerate and let infuse for 15–20 minutes only.
Once aroma is present and the color lightly tinted, remove the berries to prevent muddiness. - Chill
Continue chilling the tea for 1–2 hours until fully cold. - Serve
Fill glasses with ice.
Pour over the chilled berry green iced tea and garnish with fresh berries.
*Notes :
- Use mild honey (acacia or clover). Strong honey will overpower the tea.
- Green tea must stay light — oversteeping makes this bitter fast.
- Berries are for aroma and freshness, not sweetness; do not extend infusion time.
- Best consumed within 24 hours for clean flavor and color.
