About this recipe
Peach iced tea is a homemade drink made with black tea, ripe peaches, honey, and ice. The peaches add natural sweetness and fruit aroma, while briefly steeped black tea provides a distinct, lightly tannic base without a heavy aftertaste. Stir in the honey once the tea has cooled slightly so it blends in easily. This pitcher drink is well suited to serving when you want something cold, fruity, and less sweet than a ready-made beverage.
Ingredients
2 black tea bags
2 peaches
800 ml water
1 tablespoon honey
ice cubes
Steps
Steep the black tea in hot water for 3–4 minutes, then remove the tea bags right away. Steeping it too long creates an astringent flavor that overpowers the peaches.
Wash and pit the peaches, then cut them into thin slices or small dice. Lightly crush some of the fruit if you want it to release its juice more quickly.
Once the tea has cooled slightly, stir in the honey and add the peaches. Refrigerate until thoroughly cold so the fruit releases its aroma into the tea. Allow approximately 60–90 minutes for the whole batch to cool and chill. To speed up cooling, place the container in a cold-water bath and stir the tea before refrigerating. Serve only once the base is cold.
Serve with ice cubes and peach pieces. Stir the pitcher before pouring, as the fruit juice may collect at the bottom.
