    Frequently Ask Questions answered

    How long should you steep tea?

    Steep tea only for 5 minutes to prevent a bitter flavor. This peach iced tea recipe is simple, easy to make, and full of delicious flavor! Give it a try and let me know what you think!

    Is peach iced tea good for you?

    Peaches have so many great benefits for you and when peach tea is made from scratch it is a tasty and refreshing source of vitamins and minerals. However, sweetened tea is full of sugar and that can sometimes outweigh the benefits of the peaches.

    Can I make peach tea unsweetened? Without sugar?

    Yes! Simply add your cut peaches to the sauce pan along with ½ cup of water (to help prevent burning).

    Heat over medium low for about 3-5 minutes or until the liquid starts to turn pink. Boil for 3 minutes and then strain out the peaches.

    Notes

    Tips and Tricks
    • Depending on how sweet you like your tea you may want to add more or less sugar.
    • I prefer my peach syrup strained but you can leave the pieces of cooked peaches in the syrup if you like.
    • Steeping the tea bags for only 5 minutes prevents the tea from becoming bitter.

      I am not a big fan of peach flavored tea, but sure love other kinds of ice tea 🙂 But I sure need to try make my own cause I've not make my own ice before. Have no idea why, but I need to change that 🙂
