    Cool off with a glass of this refreshing Mint Peach Green Tea Cooler!

    Mint Peach Green Tea Cooler | Hello Little Home #drink #recipe #IcedTea

    Yesterday was so hot. I wasn't expecting it, and my husband and I made plans to go to Governors Island. It's one of my favorite places, but we spent the entire afternoon outside.

    The trip was super fun/miserable. Let's just say that I couldn't wait to crank up the A/C when we arrived home.

    Hot, humid weather always makes me crave a cool drink. Iced tea is my favorite, and it's even better mixed with something fruity.

    So when I bought some sweet, juicy peaches recently, I did a little experimenting and created this Mint Peach Green Tea Cooler.

    Mint Peach Green Tea Cooler

    I'm a huge green tea drinker, whether it's iced in summer and hot in winter. It's full of healthy antioxidants and even contains a natural chemical called theanine that provides a calming effect. On the flip side, I know that some people find green tea bitter and grassy-tasting. If that sounds like you, then you have to try this cooler!

    This Green Tea Cooler is made with freshly brewed tea that's cooled off quickly with an easy trick (no refrigeration needed). Sweet peaches are blended with a bit of sugar (you can add more or less depending on your taste and the peaches' sweetness) and then added to the tea. Mint adds fragrant finishing touch.

    I made my tea in individual glasses, but feel free to make a big batch. Just remember to use a heat proof pitcher (ask me how I know that!).

    Treat yourself to a glass of this fruity and refreshing Mint Peach Green Tea Cooler while we still have a little summer left!

    Yum! This looks so refreshing. I literally just saw that peaches are on sale at my grocery store this week. This recipe might have to happen in my house soon. My go-to is usually Chai Lattes in the cooler weather. Thanks for linking to Craft Frenzy Friday!
