How To Make Iced Tea in the Instant Pot

Iced Tea in the instant pot is so easy and it turns out incredibly flavorful. We all know that over-seeped tea can end up tasting bitter. To prevent this just add a pinch of baking soda prior to brewing and remove tea bags as soon as the pressure has been fully released. You will end up with perfectly brewed tea. Cool trick huh?

Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 8.5 cups water
  • baking soda pinch
  • 6 organic black tea bags paper tags removed
  • 1.5 cups fresh blackberries divided
  • 2 Tbsp fresh basil chopped
  • 1/2 cup honey local
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice fresh

Optional garnish:

  • Fresh blackberries
  • Fresh basil sprigs

Instructions
 

  • Add 8 cups of water, tea bags, a pinch of baking soda, and a half cup blackberries to Instant Pot® and stir to combine. Add lid and lock into place. Switch the vent to “Sealing” and set the “Manual” setting to 5 minutes.
  • While the tea is brewing, add remaining blackberries, basil, honey, and remaining water to saucepan set over medium heat. Cook, gently pressing on the blackberries to release their juices while continually stirring the mixture to combine, for 4-5 minutes. Once the honey is completely melted and the mixture starts to thicken, remove from heat and set aside.
  • When cook time on Instant Pot® is complete, allow pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then do a quick release to release any remaining pressure.
  • Carefully strain hot tea mixture with a fine-mesh strainer. Pour the reserved liquid into a large, heat-resistant pitcher and sweeten with the blackberry honey simple syrup, to taste. Add fresh lemon juice and stir to combine.
  • Serve immediately over ice with fresh blackberries and a sprig of fresh basil for garnish. Enjoy!
