🧂 Ingredients
- 4 black tea bags
- 4 cups water
- 2 ripe peaches
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- ice cubes
- fresh mint leaves
- lemon slices
📖 Instructions
🍵 Brew the Tea:
Boil 4 cups of water. Once boiling, remove from heat and add the tea bags (or loose-leaf tea in a strainer). Let it steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea. Remove the tea bags or strainer.
🍯 Make Peach Syrup:
While the tea is brewing, place the sliced peaches and sugar (or honey) into a blender. Blend until smooth. If you prefer a more natural peach flavor, you can also mash the peaches with a fork.
🌀 Combine the Tea and Peach Syrup:
Once the tea has cooled slightly, combine it with the peach syrup. Stir well to combine and dissolve the honey or sugar completely.
❄️ Chill:
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until it's fully chilled.
🍹 Serve:
Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the chilled peach iced tea over the ice, and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices if desired.
✨ Enjoy:
