Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 24kcal
Ingredients
- 4 peach tea bags
- 4 raspberry tea bags
- 1 cup raspberries plus more for garnish
- 2 peaches sliced, plus more for garnish
- 3 tablespoons sweetener of choice (like honey, agave nectar, cane sugar) or to taste
Instructions
- Bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Place the peach and raspberry tea bags in a heatproof pitcher or large measuring bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Steep for 5 minutes. Remove and discard the tea bags.
- While the tea is still warm, stir in your preferred sweetener until completely dissolved. Let the tea cool before transferring it to a large pitcher.
- Add the sliced peaches and raspberries, stirring gently so the berries remain mostly intact. Refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 1 hour.
- Serve the tea over ice. Garnish with additional peach slices, raspberries, and fresh mint, if desired.
Notes
- Tea options: Use peach and raspberry black teas for a caffeinated version or herbal fruit teas for a caffeine-free drink.
- Sweetener: Add the sweetener while the tea is warm so it dissolves completely. Begin with less and add more to taste.
- Storage: Store the tea in a covered pitcher in the refrigerator for up to three days. Add fresh ice and garnishes when serving.
