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
3 Orange Pekoe tea bags
1 c. chopped basil, loosely packed, fresh
4 c. water
4 c. Peach Nectar
1/4 c. simple syrup (dissolve 1/8 c. sugar in 1/8 c. hot water)
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.
