Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 3 ripe peaches, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 7 1/2 cups water, divided
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons loose leaf tea (or 2 tea bags), black or green tea
  • ice cubes (optional, for serving)
  • peach slices (optional, for serving)

Instruction

  • In a medium saucepan, combine peaches, sugar and 1.5 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes. Every 5 minutes, stir and crush the peaches into the mixture.
  • Transfer the peach mixture into a blender and puree until smooth. Pour the peach puree through a sieve or fine mesh strainer to strain out any clumps. Transfer into a large pitcher and set aside.
  • Bring the remaining 6 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat, add the tea and brew according to package directions (approximately 4-5 minutes). Once brewed, strain out the tea leaves or remove the tea bags and transfer the tea to the pitcher. Stir to combine and refrigerate until cool, about 20 minutes.
  • Once cool, give the mixture a quick stir, add ice cubes and peach slices and serve!
