Hey teammatey! I made this & it's delish! I cut it down a bit & threw it all in the blender to puree the peaches vs. peeling, mashing & straining them. The end result looked more like a smoothie than iced tea but it was just for me. :) Made for US Southern round of Culinary Quest by a fellow Cruisin' Culinary Queen. :) xo Bethie/elmotoo

We drink a lot of tea and this one has been made several times, I used peach tea begs, think they were Celestial Seasonings, and added the peaches, strawberries, and blueberries before serving. Hubby drinks sweet tea so this was just right for him but a little to sweet for me. Either way 5+++ tea! Made and reviewed for Susie D's World Tour.
