Let's celebrate National Peach Month with all kinds of wonderful creations using one of the most delicious fruits on the planet: peaches! I am sharing a way to use your juiciest peaches and not waste a drop: Peach Iced Tea!
I first had Peach Iced Tea when I was traveling through Georgia one hot and muggy summer. I don't regularly drink iced tea, but on this day the drink sounded perfect, so I ordered some and have never looked back. Yes, the tea flavor is there, but the star of the show is definitely the peaches.
Here are a few more peach recipes to close out the month of August. You are welcome.
