Peach and Mint Infused Iced Tea
Ingredients:
Cold brew iced tea bags, enough to make 2 qts.
1-2 ripe peaches, peeled and pitted then finely chopped
1 Tbsp. chopped mint leaves
Dash of salt
1 Tbsp. orange juice
1/2 tsp. sugar
Directions:
In a small bowl, mix the peaches with the orange juice, mint and sugar. Let sit for 30 minutes. Mash the peach mixture with a pastry cutter or potato masher. Let sit for another 30 minutes. (if you wish to get more intense peach flavor, cook this mixture down over medium heat and reduce it to 3/4 of the liquid, then cool.)
Meanwhile brew the tea according to package directions. When the mashed peaches are ready, force them through a fine seive using the back of a spoon. Add the strained juice to the iced tea and mix well. Sweeten as desired. Store in a container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
