Nectarine Sweet Iced Tea

A perfect refreshing drink to a hot summer’s day!

Perfect for pairing with a cheese board for those beautiful picnics!

Ingredients

Syrup

• 1 1/2 cup organic cane sugar
• 1 1/2 cup water
• 3 ripe nectarines (thinly sliced and extra for serving)

Tea

• 3-4 tea bags
• 12 cups filtered water

Instructions

1. In a saucepan bring sugar, water, and nectarines to a boil. Lower heat and use a wooden spoon to stir and crush the nectarines to infuse the flavour.
2. Once the sugar is dissolved, cover the saucepan and remove from heat and let sit for 25-30 minutes.
3. In a large pot brew the tea for no more than 4-5 minutes or it can get bitter. Once brewed, remove tea bags or strain out loose leaf tea and transfer pour into a pitcher and put in the fridge to cool.
4. Once your syrup is finished, pour into a bottle or container over a fine mesh strainer to strain out nectarines.
5. Serve tea over ice and fresh sliced nectarines. Add as much syrup as you like.
6. Enjoy!
