Homemade Peach Ice Tea with Simple Peach Syrup

This ice tea is made with green tea leaves, steeped overnight in cold water. By steeping it in cold water, the tea will gradually release it’s flavour, avoiding a bitter, over brewed taste. You also let fresh peaches sit in the tea while it’s steeping, encouraging a gentle peach flavour to infuse all the way through.

Now, I don’t like my peach ice TOO sweet, but I do like it a little sweeter than just plain green tea. By making a homemade peach syrup to go with the tea, you get to decide exactly how sweet you want it, whilst adding even more peach flavour.

INGREDIENTS

Iced Tea

• 2 Peaches variety of your choice
• 1.5 litres Cold Water

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make the ice tea the night before you want to serve it. Slice the peaches and add them to a large glass jug or container and cover with the cold water.
2. Add the green tea into a diffuser and place into the jug with the water and peaches. Let steep overnight or for at least 8 hours. Remove the diffuser but leave the peaches in. If you don't like your ice tea sweetened, you can drink it just like this.
