Plain iced tea is fine, but sometimes I want something with a little more pizazz. The delicate taste of peach adds a sweet flavor while the ginger gives it a zing. You can use either green tea or black tea. I prefer black tea.  You’ll need a quart sized pitcher for this recipe. If you have a larger pitcher just double the recipe.

• 4 cups boiling water
• 4 tea bags
• 1 ripe peach
• 1 inch piece of ginger, peeled and sliced

Slice the peach down the middle and remove the pit. Cut the peach into quarters and add to the pitcher. Sprinkle the peaches with the ginger, add the teabags, and pour the boiling water over it. Let it steep for around ten minutes and then remove them. You can leave the peach and the ginger in. Serve chilled and garnish with fresh mint lives or candied ginger.
