During these wonderfully hot summer days, one needs a sweet, ice filled, and why not “spice-cold” tea to quench your thirst! Let me introduce you to my summer friend: peach ginger iced tea. I like to add fresh peaches to it to give it a sweet, juicy fresh summer zing. They complement the ginger very nicely and seriously, it will do the trick when looking for a way to cool your body down. It’s always been one of my go-to drinks for the hot season. Give it a try… I guarantee you’ll feel better afterwards!

Ingredients

1 large piece fresh ginger (about the size of your hand), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 peaches, pit removed and cut into slices
10 cups water
3/4 cup honey

Directions

1

In a large pot over a medium-high heat add ginger, half of the peach slices and 7 cups of water. Bring to a boil.
2

Let boil for 15 minutes. Then remove from heat and allow fruit and ginger to steep in water for a minimum of 30 minutes.
3

In a large pitcher add 3 cups of water and honey. Stir together until honey is completely dissolved in water. Then add in remaining peach slices.
4

Once ginger peach water has cooled, remove the ginger pieces from the water, then pour into the pitcher with the honey water.
5

Give the whole mixture a good stir and place in the fridge over night. Pour over ice and enjoy!

For an extra spicy/ginger taste, leave the ginger pieces in the tea. Do not strain them out.
