Healthy Peach Green Iced Tea
Author: Roz | La Bella Vita Cucina
- 4 green tea bags
- 2 tea bags of regular tea I use "Constant Comment"
- 1 cup sugar
- enough water to fill a large glass jug or large glass container
- 4 - 6 fresh peaches peeled, pits removed, sliced . . . or the amount of peaches that you prefer for your own taste
- ⅛ cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice or to taste
- 5 cups ice cubes
- Optional: 2 or 3 medium fresh peaches, sliced for presentation in the pitcher and/or tea glasses.
Add tea bags and sliced peaches in glass container filled with water.
Set outside in the sun for several hours for the tea bags to steep; until the color is a medium brown.
Don't let your tea get too dark or it will have a very strong, and almost bitter taste.
Remove from the heat of the sun.
Set aside to cool.
Add sugar and lemon juice to taste.
Add ice to chill.
Cover and keep refrigerated until time to serve.
Just before serving, stir in peach slices.
