how to cook Lemon-Peach Iced Tea
Serves: 10
Time: 55 minutes (20
minutes boil time, 5 minutes brew time, 30 minutes chill time)
I’m
a big fan of anything with peaches in it, so this iced tea recipe is a real
winner in my mind. It’s a great option for a family picnic where there are lots
of thirsty people. You’ll notice you’ll be using green tea, and not black.
Green tea is actually much better for iced teas because the fresher flavors
hold up. It also has less caffeine than black tea. You brew the bags in water
with lemons and peaches, and then chill until ice-cold. Sweeten
with liquid stevia to taste.
Ingredients:
20 cups water
10 green tea bags
6 sliced peaches
10 lemon slices
10 drops liquid stevia
Directions:
1.Pour
water into a big stockpot and bring to a boil.
2.Temperature
should be around 170-degrees or lower before you
begin brewing green tea.
3.Add tea bags, lemons, and peaches to pot.
4.Let this brew for no more than 5 minutes.
5.Get ice ready in a big punch bowl.
6.After tea is brewed, pour tea and fruit into the
punch bowl with ice.
7.Stir
and stick it in the fridge to help speed up the cooling process.
8.When
cold, taste, and add stevia as needed.
9.Serve!
