Slow Sipping Saturday & Fresh Roses

‘Saturday Homemade black current & blueberry tea’

The best way to enjoy this juice is to take your time & sip it without any rush, a morning moment to take for yourself. The sun is shining, it’s the weekend and I’ve already mastered some baking in the kitchen & later I’ll be attending a brunch with some friends. Instead of some traditional tea, I made some homemade berry juice that tastes lovely and sweet filled with antioxidants and minerals. A vitamin bomb in a cup, I say...It is made from blueberries, lemon, ginger and blackcurrant, all good sources of anti-inflammatory properties making the drink a good choice for a sore throat remedy. Is there a better way to start the day than with a bouquet of fresh roses, a classic vogue and homemade berry juice?! Have a lovely weekend darlings!

What you will need?
  1. 1/2 cup of blueberries
  2. 1/2 cup of blackberries
  3. 1/2 large lemon juice
  4. Honey
  5. Ginger
  6. Water

In a saucepan, grate some ginger in 2 cups of hot water. Let it simmer gently (do not let it boil) under the lid for about 10 minutes. Then add in 1/2 cup of blueberries & 1/2 cup of blackberries into the saucepan. Add in the juice of 1/2 a large lemon and continue simmering for another 5 minutes. Then strain the liquid into a cup and sweeten with honey.
