Ingredients
  

2 cups strong brewed black tea (chilled)

1 cup fresh blackberries (plus extra for garnish)

1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)

1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

Ice cubes

Extra sage leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Make the Blackberry Sage Syrup: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blackberries, honey (or agave syrup), and fresh sage leaves. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blackberries break down and release their juices. Mash the mixture slightly with a fork for more flavor extraction.

    Strain the Syrup: Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl or jar, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids and let the syrup cool to room temperature.

      Prepare the Iced Tea Latte: In a tall glass, fill it halfway with ice cubes. Pour in the chilled brewed black tea followed by the cooled blackberry sage syrup and stir gently to combine.

        Add the Milk: Slowly pour in the milk, giving the drink a beautiful marbled effect. You can adjust the milk amount based on your desired creaminess.

          Garnish and Serve: Top the drink with a few fresh blackberries and sage leaves for garnish. Stir the drink before enjoying it to mix in the flavors.
