Ingredients

  • 5-6 regular tea bags (I use Lipton)
  • 1 quart water
  • 1 (15 oz) can peaches in juice, pureed in blender
  • 1 quart cold water

Simple Syrup:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated white sugar

Instructions

  • Boil one quart of 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 one cup of water and one cup of 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 the tea with pureed peaches, and one quart of cold water. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Serve tea over ice with fresh mint and peach slices if desired. Enjoy!
