Instructions
Step 1
Start by gathering all the ingredients for both drinks. For the seabuckthorn mandarin, measure out 300 grams of seabuckthorn berries and peel the 4 sweet mandarins. If you like a spicy kick, slice your fresh ginger. For the optional touch, grab a few sprigs of rosemary.
Next, for the raspberry blueberry mint, measure 300 grams of raspberries and 200 grams of blueberries. Have mint leaves on hand and some honey ready to sweeten up your drinks.
Step 2
In a blender, combine all the ingredients for the seabuckthorn mandarin concoction. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth. Don’t hesitate to adjust the honey to your preferred sweetness!
Repeat this process with the raspberry blueberry mint ingredients, blending until fully combined.
Step 3
Once both mixtures are smoothly blended, pour them into ice cube trays. For a decorative touch, feel free to add mint leaves, rosemary sprigs, or orange slices on top before freezing.
Place the trays in the freezer and freeze until solid—this usually takes a few hours.
Step 4
When you’re ready to enjoy, simply pop out a few frozen cubes and place them in a cup. Pour boiling water over the cubes, letting them dissolve into a flavorful berry tea.
Adjust sweetness with more honey or sugar if desired, and savor the delightful flavors of your homemade berry tea!
Servings
- Just drop one or two frozen tea bombs into a cup of hot water. Stir and watch the flavors unfold before your eyes! Don't forget to sweeten it up with a drizzle of honey for that layer of goodness! 🍯
- Try serving these tea bombs at your winter gatherings. A **cozy tea station** with various fruit bombs and additional sweeteners can be a hit for guests to customize their drinks. 🎉
- Why not turn it into a **frosty treat**? Blend the tea bombs with some ice to create a refreshing slushy for those warmer days. Perfect for a backyard picnic! ☀️🧊
Embrace these serving ideas and make your drinks a centerpiece of joy! 😍
