Blackberry Ice Tea





LB loves his green beans!  Someday I'll post pictures of our other children!

I love Blackberry Iced Tea that you get from Chili's or Applebee's but I don't want to pay $3 a glass for it!  So I looked it up and learned how to make it:)

2 c boiling water
4 tea bags
1 small package blackberries
1/2 c sugar
pinch baking soda
cold water

This makes a half gallon of tea.  Smash blackberries in a bowl and add sugar.  Stir until all mushy.  Boil water, turn off and add tea bags.  Steep for 3 minutes.  Throw tea bags away and pour hot tea over over blackberries.  Let sit for an hour.  Strain as you pour into pitcher.  Fill pitcher with cold water and enjoy!
