Colt and I were out shopping last weekend when the fresh peaches at the grocery store drew us in with their mesmerizing smell. I had already planned on making a Frozen Peach Cheesecake I will be sharing on Sunday, but Colt thought a cocktail was in order. 

After a little bit of back and forth brainstorming we decided a Peach Whiskey Iced Tea would hit the spot at the end of a hot day! 

Why make plain Iced Tea when Peach Iced Tea will take your taste buds to a whole other level.

The sweet juicy peaches combined with the black tea makes a wonderful treat on a hot summers day. Add a shot of Whiskey for adults, and you have a fun cocktail.  

Not only perfect for parties, but to just sit back and enjoy. 

Peach Whiskey Iced Tea is the perfect end to the perfect day. 

You might also love making Whisky Peaches to garnish the cocktails and to use the whisky from the peaches for an extra special treat! 

Please remember to drink responsibly! Here's how to make Peach Whiskey Iced Tea:


Iced Tea brewing in a large pitcher jar with ice being poured in.

Steep 5 bags of your favorite Black Ice Tea in 3 cups Hot Water. 

Let steep for 5 minutes, and remove tea bags. Add 8 cups Ice, and 1 cup Cold Water.

Diced Peaches and Sugar in a food processor.


In a blender or food processor puree:
  • 1 2/3 cup Diced Peaches
  • 1/4 cup Sugar

    1. Hi Libby, It keeps a few days in the fridge easily. I would just not add extra ice until ready to serve so it doesn't become watered down. I hope that helps, Serena
