Ingredients

  • 2 iced tea sized tea bags or 4-6 regular tea bags
  • 2 nectarines sliced
  • Agave nectar to taste

Instructions

  • Add tea bags to empty drink dispenser. 
  • Fill with cold water and top with sliced nectarines.
  • Cover with lid and set outside in a sunny spot for at least 4-6 hours until the tea is a dark amber color.
  • Remove tea bags and sliced nectarines.
  • Refrigerate.
  • Serve over ice.

Notes

I prefer to sweeten my tea by the glass as some of my guests prefer an unsweetened iced tea. If you want to sweeten the whole batch, pour agave nectar or simple syrup in the bottom of the container before adding any other ingredients.
