Peach Tea Punch is a delightful, refreshing beverage that combines the classic flavors of iced tea and the sweet, fruity notes of fresh peaches - all topped off with the bubbly zing of ginger ale. The star of this punch, fresh peaches, are pureed and then strained to remove any pulp. This fresh peach juice is added to freshly brewed sweet tea, lending a sweet, fruity flavor that pairs with the strong tea. The fresh peach juice adds sweetness and a lovely, bright color to the punch. Ginger ale adds a subtle spiciness, which complements the sweetness of the peaches and the robustness of the tea. The finished Peach Tea Punch is a blend of sweet, robust, and fizzy flavors. This recipe makes 3 quarts so it's the perfect drink for summer gatherings, picnics, or just to enjoy on a warm sunny day.
