Ingredients

3 Teabags
6 cups Water
1 cup Water
1 cup Sugar
3 small Fresh peaches

Instructions

Start by preparing your tea. Boil 6 cups of water and allow 3 teabags to seep until tea is made (about 5-10minutes). Set aside.
Peel and slice peaches and remove the pit. Use a masher to crush peaches and place them in a pot with 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar. Bring to boil then return to medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
Remove fruit pieces by straining the peach syrup through a strainer. Once strained add this peach syrup to your brewed tea.
Serve on ice and enjoy it!

Notes

Tip - Some alternatives to sugar could be Stevia, Monk fruit, Honey, or Agave Nectar.

Tip - It is important to strain the tea, as the chunky peaches would be hard to drink with a straw.

Tips for making a good Sweet Tea:

Be careful not to burn the sugar when dissolving in the boiling water. Be sure to stir the water and sugar constantly so as to not burn it.
Use a sugar alternative like Stevia or Monk fruit instead of sugar.
Serve over ice and with slices peaches for some added flavor.
