Preparation

1. Prepare citrus base:
Pour the freshly squeezed juice of one orange and the sliced pieces of the second orange into a large glass.

2. Add herbs and fruit:
Gently rub the basil leaves between your hands to release the essential oils, and add them along with the fresh raspberries directly into the glass.

3. Chill and sweeten:
Fill the glass to the top with ice cubes and add the agave nectar.

4. Fill and stir:
Top up the glass with the completely cooled black tea and stir the entire contents thoroughly with a long spoon. Enjoy!
