1/4 cup Peach Balsamic Vinegar
3/4 cup Basil Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt & White Pepper to taste
6 cups Spring mix
1 cup fresh raspberries

Instructions
- First, steep the tea. Steep one tablespoon Raspberry Patch Tea in 1/2 cup boiling water for 10 mins. Strain off the tea, and you should have about 1/3 cup steeped tea. Allow to cool completely.
- Combine the cooled Raspberry Patch Tea, shallot, garlic, and Peach Balsamic Vinegar in a bowl. Whisk well to combine. Drizzle in the Basil Extra Virgin Olive Oil while whisking continuously.
