Peach tea is a refreshing summer drink that we love. I make the simple syrup out of peach skins that have been removed for ice cream or canning, and it gives a ton of flavor to the drink. Making peach tea in Ohio is a common thing. Place some tea bags in water on the back patio, wait a few hours, and you have tea! Mixing the tea and peach together is a perfect beverage to combat the heat.
