Refreshing peach iced tea is the best during the hot summer days. This is a delicious experiment of bringing a little of the smokey grill flavor into a drink.
**For tea, use iced tea bags not regular tea bags because they hold a much larger amount of tea. If you wish to use regular tea bags, just remember that you will need several more bags.*
Preheat your grill and make sure it is clean and greased so the fruit doesn't stick to it.
Slice lemons into thick slices and cut the peaches in half. Place lemon slices and peach halves onto the grill (place peaches cut side down first.)
Once fruit has softened and got some nice grill marks on it, flip it onto the other side. Drizzle some honey onto the cooked side of the peaches. Let them cook for a few more minutes. Carefully take fruit off the grill and into a pitcher.
Fill the pitcher with hot water and add tea bags.
Stir in sugar while water is hot.
Let the tea bags steep until the tea reaches a deep tea flavor. (If you will be serving this tea over ice, make it strong.)
Discard tea bags once the desired tea strength is reached.
*Discard lemon slices once the tea has cooled to room temperature. Lemon is quite strong and if you leave lemon slices in there the whole time, lemon flavor will become overwhelming.
Once tea is cooled to room temperature, transfer the pitcher to the refrigerator. Keep refrigerated.
