ALCOHOLIC SWEET PEACH TEA
A fresh, peachy sweet tea that's perfect for hot summer days. I am definitely NOT a fan of sweet or flavored tea, but I came up with this concoction on accident, and LOVE it. Remember, the amount of alcohol you want to use is up to personal taste. I personally use a little more vodka than peach schnapps. I just like a touch of the peach flavoring.

SWEET ICED PEACH TEA
This is a refreshing fruit tea. I brew the tea in in my 3 quart Mr Coffee Iced Tea Pot. Other fruits or juices can be used too. It will probably be good as a hot tea as well.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy peaches: The quality of your peaches will greatly impact the flavor of your tea. Look for peaches that are fragrant and have a slight give when you press them gently.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like mint or basil add a refreshing flavor to peach tea. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Sweeten to taste: Some people like their peach tea sweet, while others prefer it tart. Add sugar or honey to taste, or use a natural sweetener like stevia.
- Chill before serving: Peach tea is best served chilled. You can either chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, or you can add ice cubes to each glass.
Conclusion:
Sweet peach tea is a refreshing and flavorful drink that is perfect for summer. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you like it sweet or tart, with or without herbs, peach tea is a delicious way to enjoy the taste of summer.
