Fantastic, easy, and a crowd pleaser! Thank you Michael! You have great stuff!
That was awsome that was great for hot day I am going to make more Tea every day.
I want to drink more green tea for health reasons, but just could not find a hot version that I could enjoy. Then I ran across this recipe. What a great idea. I used canned-in-juice peaches since fresh are not in season and, because I wanted a little more peach flavor, added some of the juice from the can as well. I added about 2 Tbls of local honey and a squirt of lemon juice. I enjoyed one glass w/o mint and then remembered to add the mint on the second glass and I thought the mint an improvement.
I will also plan to try a mango version and a raspberry version, whatever is available.
This beverage is healthy, refreshing and scrumptious. What more can we ask?
I made this tea because my father-in-law loves cold tea drinks and I saw this recipe on his show, was very easy and quick to make. My whole family loved it! Every single one of them told me that it was really good, especially how at the end they had that slice of peach. Im definitly making it again.
Easy to make and delicious.
