Share
Sweet, sun-ripened, and endlessly versatile — peach tea is one of the most searched summer drinks in the country for a reason. It works hot, iced, blended, and dressed up. Here's everything you need to know about brewing it and six recipes worth making.
The Benefits
Peaches are rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants including chlorogenic acid, which has been studied for its role in reducing inflammation and supporting healthy blood sugar levels. Brewed as a tea, you get a light, naturally sweet cup that's caffeine-free, hydrating, and easy to drink morning through evening.

How to Brew the Base
Steep 1 tablespoon of peach tea in 8 oz of water at 200°F for 4 to 5 minutes. For iced drinks and recipes, brew double-strength — 2 tablespoons per 8 oz, steep 6 minutes. Strain and cool completely before using.
6 Recipes
1. Classic Peach Iced Tea Brew double-strength, pour over a full glass of ice. Add a squeeze of lemon and a sprig of fresh mint. Clean, simple, and exactly what summer should taste like. Get this one right first — it's the baseline everything else builds from.
2. Peach Tea Lemonade 1 part peach tea concentrate, 1 part fresh lemonade, ice. Stir and serve with a lemon wheel and fresh peach slice. The sweet-tart balance is exactly right — one of the most viral summer drink formats for a reason.
3. Peach Rose Tea Brew peach tea concentrate and steep 1 teaspoon of dried culinary rose petals in the warm liquid for 2 additional minutes before straining. Cool and pour over ice. Floral, elegant, and lightly sweet — the peach carries the rose without either one overpowering. A natural fit for afternoon entertaining.
4. Peach Green Tea Brew equal parts peach tea and green tea, combine over ice. The natural sweetness of peach rounds out the grassy notes of the green tea perfectly. For an elevated version, use ceremonial grade matcha whisked separately and combined cold — the color contrast alone is worth it.
5. Iced Peach Tea Spritz Pour 3 oz of peach tea concentrate over ice in a tall glass. Top with sparkling water or Prosecco for the full spritz. Add a fresh peach slice and a rosemary sprig. TikTok has made this format explode — the fizz lifts the peach in a way still water doesn't.
6. Peach White Tea Brew peach tea concentrate and combine with a cooled white tea (silver needle or white peony work best) in equal parts over ice. The white tea adds a delicate, honeyed depth that makes this feel premium and refined. Lower caffeine, complex flavor, and a combination that stands out.
