A perfect treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 quart Water (for Steeping Tea)
  • 6  Regular Tea Bags (I Use Lipton)
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Peaches In Juice, Pureed In Blender
  • 1 quart Cold Water
  • FOR THE SIMPLE SYRUP:
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar

Preparation

Boil the water in a large pot. Add tea bags and steep for 3–5 minutes. Remove tea bags and discard.

While tea is steeping, prepare simple syrup: In a separate small saucepan, combine water and sugar and bring to a boil. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Pour simple syrup into pot with tea and stir. In a heat-safe pitcher, combine tea with pureed peaches, and the cold water. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Serve tea over ice with fresh mint and peach slices if desired. Enjoy!
