Make peach iced tea by adding peach nectar to traditional iced tea or by combining peach jelly, sugar, powdered orange, instant tea, and lemonade with boiling water. Adjust the recipe to taste and use natural sweeteners. Alternatively, brew peach-flavored tea bags or instant peach tea.
One way to spice up your iced tea, when you’re bored with traditional lemon, is to make peach iced tea. Although sugar and artificial sweetener can be used in peach iced tea, the natural sweetness of peaches is a healthy substitute. The easiest way to make peach tea is to add peach nectar to traditional iced tea, but there are many other ways to make peach tea that will enhance the flavor of the peach.
The first way to prepare peach tea is by combining two packets of peach jelly with one cup (201 g) of sugar, one-half cup (118 ml) of powdered orange, one-half cup (118 ml) of instant tea and one-half cup (236 mL) of lemonade with one cup (236 mL) of boiling water. Stir the ingredients until they dissolve completely. Once you have combined all the ingredients, add cold water until the peach tea is at your desired strength.
This recipe can be modified using a box of jelly, one cup (236 mL) of instant tea, and two cups (402 g) of sugar. The best way to prepare this type of peach iced tea is for taste. Adjust the amount of jelly, instant tea and sugar to your likeness for individual flavors. Artificial sweetener can also be used in place of sugar, however, make sure you are familiar with the strength of the sweetener. Some sweeteners measure out the same sugar, while other sweeteners only require half the measurement to reach the same level of sweetness.
If you prefer more of a natural peach tea, boil six cups (1.4 L) of water and dump it over six of your favorite types of black or green tea bags and three peeled and sliced peaches sitting in a pan. After the tea and peaches have steeped for five minutes, strain the tea into a pitcher and save the peaches. Add honey and lemon juice to your liking. Refrigerate the tea and peaches separately. When both are completely chilled, place a few peach slices in a glass, pour the tea over the slices, and garnish with a sprig of basil or mint.
If you’re craving peach iced tea and don’t have the time to make a natural or semi-homemade version, there are many products that can help speed up the process. An alternative is to purchase peach-flavored tea bags that can be brewed and chilled in the same way as traditional iced tea. Another alternative is to buy instant peach tea which can be mixed into cold water in seconds.
