Be careful with the ginger! I must have used too much because that’s all I taste. I’m sure it was my doing but I was quite disappointed to waste all of those beautiful blackberries.
Hi, what do you think about making a bigger batch and then freezing the syrup as ice cubes, so it's handy to have on hand anytime ? Would it work or do I loose the health benefits from doing that?
I loved it! Thank you so much!
love it!
Don’t take it personally, but it was really not our taste. Lot’s of work for a drink witch taste just like cold green tea.
The perfect refreshing drink for hot summer days!
I really wanted to make this but don’t have no pineapple or mango. :( Any subs I could do? Thanks!
I love this recipe. I made it myself with raspberry instead of blackberry. Thanks for sharing!
I love this recipe! Wouldn't have thought that fighting my rosacea could be this delicious! :D
Plus, when I noticed that the fruit mixture already tastes really delicious itself, I replaced the blackberries with frozen blueberries, mixed it with the frozen pineapples, lime and maple syrup and got a really tasty nicecream
I just made this drink and it turned out amazing! I didn't have enough blackberries at home, so I used half blackberries and half frozen cranberries instead, and it did the job perfectly. I am a big fan of green tea and this version is great for the summertime. Thanks for the recipe :)
Perfect blend of flavors that’s cool and refreshing. I’m not a green tea fan but this drink has changed my mind completely.
Hi there, I am about to make the recipe but I don't have any pineapple and my friend doesn't like that at all. I was wondering if I could swap it with something else. Is it to bring some acidity in the drink or is it to do with the consistency or the puree? Or both? 😁 Looking forward to try this drink in this hot weather in South England!
Great drink! Since I always forget things at the supermarket, I substituted the pineapple for a peach and a gold-kiwi, so technically I don't know how the drink tastes precisely, sorry. But the make-do version was amazing. Thanks for all the recipes and inspiration for the forgetful=people-variations!
I just made this - and its delicious! This is such a fun iced tea and cant believe its just fruits
We made this tea to sip on during family movie night and it was a huge hit. So refreshing and gorgeous - I loved swirling around my glass and watching the blackberry syrup mix and settle. This will definitely become a summertime staple. (I also thought a version with blueberry, lemon, and thyme would be nice.).
Really nice recipe. Thanks for sharing. Also see
I have a lot of issues with bitter/tart flavours and texture problems that make eating vegetables and fruits difficult. Your recipes really help me consume more healthy foods and I just wanted to say thanks.
I'm really enjoying this one in particular. I'm using up tea that would have just sat in my kitchen and having some fruit in the morning which is foreign to me.
Delish! Used blueberries first time since they are in high season here in New England right now!
A perfect light and fun refreshing drink for summer. Used spearmint tea to get that flavor as I didn’t have any mint on hand. A little work, but oh so worth it. 😄
I just made “this”, or a heavily adapted version based off of what I have on hand.
We have plenty of tea we rarely drink, so I brewed green and some black/rooibos mixed (I’ll write up that part when we try the boba recipe of yours soon!).
We have a mix of an açaí super fruit blend - so antioxidants are still coming in hot! Blueberries, mango, açaí, pineapple. I followed your instructions on the ginger, maple, lime, but are missing fresh mint. Bummer.
We enjoy this! 👌 I would definitely recommend trying it out, even if you don’t have the exact ingredients on had.
I will definitely make it again. I’d follow the recipe to a T, and just be inspired by yours to produce something in this realm of “iced tea refreshers”.
I’m saving the solids to use in my breakfast oats. 😋 Thanks Sadia! 💜
I just made this as is (minus the maple syrup). So good!
Hey, Im just making it, how long I can store the sirup in the fridge?
Hey, do you think I can use blueberries instead of blackberries in this recipe? Thanks!
Hope it’s not a stupid question, but can I do it with rooibos tea instead? I can’t tolerate caffeinated beverages.
