Peach-Berry Iced Tea

Posted by Diana van Eyk on September 9th, 2011

I adapted this recipe from the Print Me Coupon twitter site.  Sounds like a wonderfully fruity and refreshing late summer drink.

  • 8 organic Rooibos tea bags
  • 2 peaches or nectarines, peeled, pitted and sliced
  • 1 C. fresh blueberries or sliced strawberries
  • 3 tbsp. light agave nectar

Method

Put 6 cups water into a medium pot and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, add tea bags, cover and steep 6 to 7 minutes; discard tea bags. Meanwhile, purée half of the peaches and blueberries with agave nectar in a food processor or blender until smooth; transfer to a large pitcher with remaining fruit. (Alternately, muddle fruit in pitcher with a wooden spoon.) Add 3 cups ice cubes to pot with hot tea and stir until melted; pour tea into pitcher with fruit. Serve immediately over ice, or chill until ready to serve.
