Ingredients

For the tea:

  • 6 cups water
  • 6 bags of tea or 6 teaspoons loose tea

Peach syrup:

  • 1 ½ cups diced peaches
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ cup sugar

Optional:

  • ¼-1/2 granulated sugar

Instructions

Make the syrup:

  • Add peaches, water, and sugar in a saucepan and bring to a simmer until peaches get soft.
  • Break the peaches with a fork then continue to cook for about 10 minutes.
  • Strain the mixture and set aside.

Brew the tea:

  • Boil 4 cups of water in a saucepan, turn heat off and add tea bags.
  • Let it steep for 5 minutes.
  • Remove tea bags.
  • Add peach syrup and the remaining water.
  • Taste to adjust sweetness.
  • Chill in the fridge until cold.
  • Serve with ice, peach slices and mint if desired.

Notes

  • For my husband the tea needed no more sugar, for me the whole batch needed about ¼ cup extra sugar. So you will need to taste and adjust the sugar level to your liking.
