Ingredients

5 1/2 cups water, divided
1 1/2 cups white sugar
4 peaches - peeled, pitted, and sliced
1 cup lemon juice
4 each-flavored tea bags

Directions

Step 1

Stir together 1 1/2 cups water, sugar, and sliced peaches in a large pot. Bring to a simmer, and simmer until sugar is dissolved, the mixture is syrupy, and syrup is infused with peach flavor, about 10 minutes. Set syrup aside to cool, then strain off peaches; reserve peaches for another use.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in another pot bring remaining 4 cups water to a boil. Turn heat off. Add tea bags; steep 4 to 6 minutes. Remove tea bags and discard.

Step 3

Add lemon juice to syrup. To each glass add ice and 6 ounces brewed tea. Sweeten each glass to taste with 1 to 2 ounces lemon-peach syrup.
