Homemade Peach Iced Tea

Ingredients

• 500 g Yellow peaches (Preferably ripe, washed, pitted, and cut into pieces)
• 200 g Sugar
• 500 g Water (for the syrup)
• 250 g Prepared peach syrup (Taken from the prepared syrup; the recipe also indicates approximately 1 cup)
• 750 g Water (for the mixture) (The creator also indicates 3 cups)
• 1 Lemon juice (Juice of 1 lemon)
• Ice cubes (To fill the pitcher)
• Peach pieces (For garnish, optional; quantity not specified)
• Jasmine tea (Optional; the creator suggests infusing some in the water, with no quantity specified)

Steps

1. 1

   Wash the yellow peaches, remove the pits, then cut the fruit into wedges or pieces.

2. 2

   Place the peaches in a pan and add the sugar and 500 g of water.

3. 3

   Bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes, until a syrup forms and the peaches have fully infused their flavor.

4. 4

   Let the syrup rest for 30 minutes.

5. 5

   Strain the syrup, pressing the peaches well to extract as much juice as possible. Keep the strained fruit to eat as is or use to make compote, optionally with apples.

6. 6

   Pour 250 g of peach syrup into a pitcher and add 750 g of water.

7. 7

   Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon into the pitcher, then stir.

8. 8

   Add ice cubes to fill the pitcher. Garnish with a few peach pieces if desired.

9. 9

   Optional: infuse some jasmine tea in the water, according to your taste.

Notes

The recipe provides quantities for one pitcher without specifying its volume. The syrup is prepared in a larger quantity than the amount used in the drink. Jasmine tea and the peach garnish are optional suggestions from the transcript.
