Summer Berry Iced Tea

Serves: 1

INGREDIENTS

small handful of mixed berries, fresh or thawed from frozen (I used a mixture of about 10 raspberries, blackberries and blueberries) 
10ml lemon juice
45ml vodka
45ml berry tea
30ml cranberry juice 
dash of sugar syrup
15ml elderflower cordial
ice

To serve
4 mixed fresh berries 

METHOD

Make a small brew of berry tea and leave to cool in the fridge. 

In a cocktail shaker, muddle the berries with the lemon juice. Add all the remaining ingredients with some ice and shake. Strain into a highball glass over ice. I used 2 large ice cubes

Garnish with 4 fresh berries. I also scooped out some of the muddled berries from the bottom of the cocktail shaker – it looked delicious!
