Equipment

  • medium stainless steel pot
  • measuring spoon
  • measuring cups
  • stainless steel funnel
  • fine mesh sieve
  • spatula or long spoon
  • glass mason jars with lids (One pint jar with lid plus one half-gallon jar with lid.)

Ingredients

Organic Blackberry Tea Blend

  • 1 cup organic blackberry tea dry leaves
  • ¼ cup organic stevia dry leaves

Blackberry Tea

  • ½ gallon water, divided
  • 2 tbsp organic blackberry tea blend
  • ¼ cup cane sugar (optional)

Instructions

Organic Blackberry Tea Blend

  • Combine 1 cup of organic blackberry tea leaves and ¼ cup organic stevia leaves in a glass mason jar or other container with a lid. Shake well and store out of direct sunlight.

Blackberry Tea

  • In a medium stainless steel pot, add 1 cup of the water and let it come to a simmer or slow boil on the stove. Then take the pot off the heat.
  • Add 2 tbsp of organic blackberry tea blend to the hot water and let it steep for 7 minutes or longer.
  • Get out one half-gallon glass mason jar and add ¼ cup of sugar to the bottom of the jar (optional). Set a stainless steel funnel into the top of the jar and set a fine mesh sieve over the funnel to catch the loose tea leaves.
  • When the tea has steeped for at least 7 minutes, pour the tea liquid through the sieve and funnel into the jar. You can squeeze out the liquid from the tea leaves with a spoon or fork, but small particles may get pushed through into your tea jar.
  • If you added sugar, stir the tea and sugar together until well-combined. Once that is done, fill the jar with the rest of the water and stir. Then add the lid and refrigerate.
