Unlike sugar laden store-bought iced teas, this homemade peach tea is low in sugar making it one of the healthiest summer drink for you.

Put 500 ml Cold water, 3 Peaches and 3 tablespoon Honey into a pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for about 15 minutes, until the peach skin starts to come off.Once your simple syrup is finished, pour into a bottle or container over a fine mesh strainer to strain out peaches. You can reserve the peaches for later use, such as to place over oats or ice cream sundaes. The addition of herbs is lovely in this too. Thyme and mint are my favourites to add, as they go really well with peaches.

Peaches which I have used here were nice ripe and sweet, so½cupsugar gave enough sweetness to the iced tea as per our liking. Feel free to increase the sugar as per your taste. This isn't an overly sweet iced tea, as we used just a couple of tablespoons of honey, but feel free to use more if you like a really sweet tea. You can use maple syrup instead too.THE TEAFORIA EXPERIENCE: Refreshing natural iced tea full of real flavour, unlike pre bottled or syrupy ones that are full of nasties.

Honey - This is how we have sweetened the peach iced tea. You could swap it for maple syrup if you wanted this to be vegan. Add tea leaves and bring to boil, simmer for 2 minutes only. Beyond this time, the tea can get bitter. However, if you want the tea to be stronger, add more tea and brew for another 2 minutes.
