Ingredients
  

4 cups water

4 green tea bags

2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced

1/4 cup honey (or agave syrup, to taste)

1 lemon, juiced

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Boil Water: In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil over medium-high heat.

    Brew Tea: Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat and add the green tea bags. Let them steep for about 3-5 minutes, depending on your preferred strength.

      Prepare Peaches: While the tea is steeping, place the sliced peaches in a blender. Puree until smooth for a vibrant peach puree. If desired, reserve some slices for garnish.

        Sweeten the Tea: After the tea has steeped, remove the tea bags and stir in the honey (or agave syrup) until fully dissolved. Then, mix in the lemon juice.

          Combine: In a large pitcher, combine the brewed green tea with the peach puree. Stir well to ensure even distribution of flavors.

            Chill: Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1-2 hours, or until it's thoroughly chilled.

              Serve: Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the chilled peach iced green tea over the ice, and garnish with fresh mint leaves and remaining peach slices.

                Enjoy: Sip and enjoy the refreshing taste of summer!
