With a bountiful summer harvest of fresh basil available, here's a pleasant beverage that we enjoy serving for its unusual combination of flavors.
Peach Basil Iced Tea

Place tea bags and basil in a large bowl. Bring water to a boil, pour over the basil and tea bags. Steep 5 minutes and strain. Chill. Stir in peach nectar and syrup. Enjoy this refreshing iced tea on a hot summers day.
