This is a 10 star recipe however, I can only give it a 5. I only used raspberries, blackberries, blueberries as I couldn't find black currants. After cooking the fruit on the stove I let it cool to the point where I could touch it without getting burned. I also used blueberry herbal tea and since I didn't have a cheesecloth I used a Bounty paper towel in combination with the sieve which I have used before as a filter. After a lot of the liquid passed through to the bowl, I then squeezed the paper towel with my hands and was able to remove more juice. Delicious and so worth the extra work.

What a lovely, refreshing and healthy summer's drink! I really like the tartness from the berries, which is balanced nicely by the added sweetener. I used 20g agave nectar, which was plenty for me. My tea was a cherry-black currant one. Mmmmm, YUMMY! I found your instructions perfect and the recipe overall very easy to make. As Acadia said, definitely worth the extra effort! Eventhough I made this on a chilly autumn day, it was enjoyed by all as a reminiscence of summer! THANKS SO MUCH for sharing this lovely recipe with us, Kat!
