White Peach Iced Tea
A breezy iced tea sweetened with peach and honey — brewed strong so it doesn't go watery over ice.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 8 cups water
- 8 white or green tea bags or 2 tbsp loose tea
- 1 1/2 cups peach puree or peach nectar
- 4 tbsp honey
- 5 cups ice
- 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves for garnish
- 1 peach thinly sliced, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the water: Bring the water to just under a boil. Remove from heat and add the tea bags.
- Steep the tea: Steep for 3 minutes, then remove the tea bags or strain out the loose tea.
- Stir in peach and honey: While the tea is still warm, whisk in the peach puree and honey until the honey fully dissolves.
- Chill: Let the tea cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until fully chilled, about 1–2 hours.
- Serve: Pour over ice in glasses or a pitcher. Garnish with fresh mint and peach slices.
Notes
Steep green or white tea no more than 3 minutes and use water just under a boil (about 175–185°F) — both prevent bitterness. Stir the honey in while the tea is still warm so it dissolves fully instead of clumping at the bottom.
