Berries are very important at this time of year, and bilberries, a close relative of the North American blueberry, were particularly valued in ancient times. It is said that they were one of the offerings sent to the Irish High King as tribute at Lughnasadh. Today, we can honor their ancient value and enjoy the sweet tartness of a cooling berry-filled lemonade on a warm afternoon.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Chill Time: 2 hours
Serves: 8

1/2 cup honey
1 cup lemon juice
3 lemon chamomile tea bags
2 cups blueberries
6 cups water

In a small saucepan, dissolve the honey in lemon juice over low heat.� Place tea bags in a blender and pour lemon juice over them. Allow to steep for 9 minutes. Remove tea bags and puree with blueberries and water. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve over ice.
