Ingredients
  

4 cups water

4 green tea bags

2 ripe peaches, pitted and thinly sliced

1/4 cup honey (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Boil the Water: In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a gentle boil over medium heat. Once it reaches a rolling boil, immediately remove from heat to prevent overcooking.

    Brew the Tea: Carefully add the 4 green tea bags to the hot water. Allow the tea to steep for 3-5 minutes, depending on your preference for strength. Once steeped, remove the tea bags and set the brewed tea aside to cool to room temperature.

      Prepare the Peach Puree: While the tea cools, place the sliced peaches in a blender. Add the honey and freshly squeezed lemon juice to the peaches. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency. If you prefer a smoother drink, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve; otherwise, you can leave it slightly chunky for added texture.

        Combine & Chill: Once the tea has cooled completely, pour in the peach puree and stir until thoroughly combined. Transfer the mixture to a pitcher and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld.

          Serve the Tea: When ready to serve, fill each glass with ice cubes. Pour the chilled iced peach green tea over the ice. For an elegant presentation, garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves and a few additional peach slices.

            Enjoy: Before sipping, give your drink a gentle stir to mix the flavors. Sit back and enjoy this refreshing summer beverage, perfect for warm days!
