Iced blueberry tea – a fruity classic for summer balance
Sometimes in the summer we crave something more than just fresh fruit – something that combines fruity flavor, mild herbal notes and a pleasant cooling effect. This is where blueberry tea comes in – rich ruby color, fruity flavor and a gentle acidity that instantly refreshes. Cold blueberry tea is easy to prepare, yet packed with nutrients, making it a great choice for daily hydration without sugar or caffeine.
Ingredients:
- 1 -2 tablespoons dried blueberries
- 500 ml boiling water
- 1 teaspoon honey or other natural sweetener (optional)
- juice of ½ lemon (or a few slices)
- a few mint leaves (optional)
- ice cubes
Procedure:
- Pour boiling water over the blueberry tea, cover and let steep for 10–15 minutes.
- Remove tea bags or strain.
- Add lemon juice and sweetener if desired and mix well.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
- Serve with ice cubes and mint leaves.
Blueberry tea has a naturally deep, slightly woodsy flavor that works beautifully on its own or in combination with other fruit teas – for a varied and colorful summer menu without artificial additives.
Safe use and tips
- Natural herbs and fruits: Without added flavorings and preservatives, this tea is also suitable for children.
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Safe in most cases, but we recommend moderation if it contains herbs with a stronger effect.

Conclusion
