How To Make peach tea

  • Step 1
    Bring 6 cups water to a boil. Add your tea bags and remove from heat. Let the tea bags seep for about 15 minutes. Remove tea bags and allow to cool.
  • Step 2
    Bring 2 cups water, sugar and peaches to a low boil (except not the peach you are reserving for garnish). Allow to simmer for 30 minutes. Mash peaches with old style potato masher or spoon and simmer for another 10 minutes. Remove from heat and run through strainer. Allow to cool. Combine the cooled tea and peach water. Stir well. Serve over ice with fresh peach slices. If you like it sweet increase your sugar to 1/2 cup. I think peaches are naturally sweet but everyone has different taste buds. I have made this with 1/4 cup Stevia instead of the sugar and it is equally delicious and sugar free.
