Peach Lavender Sweet Tea

Refreshing home-brewed sweet tea flavored with summer peaches and fragrant lavender—all you need is a front porch and a rocking chair for southern summer bliss.

Serves 4

Instructions:

1. Heat water to boiling and pour into a large pitcher. Stir in peach juice, lavender sprigs. Add tea bags and steep for 1 hour.
2. To prepare simple syrup, combine sugar and water in a small pot over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer until sugar dissolves, stirring frequently. Add simple syrup to pitcher and stir.
3. Remove tea bags and chill the tea with ice or by refrigerating. Serve in tall, ice-filled glasses garnish with lavender and peach slices.

Tips: Like your tea super sweet? Increase the simple syrup ingredients to 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water. Not a sweet tea fan? Remove the syrup altogether.
