Provided by Chuck Hughes

Categories     beverage

Time 2h40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups/500ml sugar
6 peaches, halved and pitted
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped
1 tablespoon/15ml loose green or black tea leaves or 4 tea bags
Split vanilla beans, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring 3 cups (750ml) water and the sugar to a boil in a pot. Add the peaches and vanilla bean (including the seeds). Simmer over medium heat for about 30 minutes.
  • Discard the vanilla bean. Pour the peaches and syrup into a blender and puree until smooth. Strain the peach puree through a sieve into a pitcher.
  • Bring 4 cups (1 liter) water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from the heat, add the tea and steep according to the package directions. Strain to remove the tea leaves, then add the tea to the pitcher with the peach puree. Stir to combine. Refrigerate until cold.
  • The pulp from the fruit may have separated from the tea during chilling, so be sure to stir it before serving. Pour over ice cubes in tall glasses and garnish with vanilla beans.
  • Cook's Note: When blending hot liquids, remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh peaches, you can use frozen or canned peaches, but fresh peaches will give you the best flavor.
  • You can adjust the amount of sugar in the recipe to taste. If you like your tea sweeter, add more sugar. If you like it less sweet, add less sugar or none at all.
  • You can also add other flavors to your tea, such as mint, ginger, or lemon. Experiment to find your favorite combination.
  • Peach tea is best served chilled. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Peach tea is a delicious and refreshing drink that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a refreshing drink, give peach tea a try. You won't be disappointed.
