Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ripe peaches (or use canned peaches in juice)
- 4 cups of brewed black or green tea (chilled)
- 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- Ice cubes
- Mints and peach slices for garnish
Instructions
- Start by peeling and pitting the peaches. In a blender, combine the peaches with a tablespoon of honey and lemon juice. Blend until smooth, creating a sweet and tangy peach puree.
- Brew your favorite tea and let it cool completely in the refrigerator. For a more robust flavor, brew the tea slightly stronger than usual.
- In a large pitcher, combine the chilled tea with the peach puree, stirring well. Taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey if desired. Chill the mixture again for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the Cool & Refreshing Homemade Peach Tea, and garnish with fresh peach slices and mint leaves for an extra flavor and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe peaches for optimal sweetness and flavor.
- If fresh peaches aren’t available, canned peaches in juice work equally well.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the honey or agave syrup to suit your taste.
- For a sparkling version, add some club soda or sparkling water just before serving.
