Recipe: Homemade Peach Iced Tea with Lipton Flavour
I’m a big fan of Lipton iced tea, and I love drinking it every summer when it’s hot. It reminds me of my childhood summers and holidays in Greece, Spain, and Portugal.
In Sweden, Lipton iced tea comes in affordable sachets (like this Lipton iced tea powder, but in sachets for one pitcher each). Still, here in the UK, I only see 1.25l bottles in supermarkets and occasionally the smaller 500ml bottles. The larger bottles usually cost £2 each, which isn’t cheap (you can sometimes get them cheaper on Amazon.co.uk).
After trying some of the expensive, ready-made iced tea bottles, I decided to make my own, and it worked so well that I probably won’t buy the original bottles for home consumption anymore.
For large groups: If you’re making large lots of peach iced tea for gatherings or events, having the right gear can make a big difference. Visit 247cateringsupplies.co.uk to find beverage dispensers, commercial-grade pitchers, and other essentials to help you enjoy refreshing tea without any hassle.
To make this summer drink even more unforgettable, add some attractive touches. PVC patches can be cast-off as coasters for portion peach iced tea at parties or events.
These PVC patches can be designed to match the party theme, featuring adorable pink peaches, festive handwritten messages, or your favourite party elements. Plus, PVC patches are produced quickly to meet your needs.
This will give each glass of iced tea its own unique and charming decoration, brightening the mood and adding a touch of summer party flair.
How to Make Iced Tea at Home
Here’s how I make homemade peach iced tea with Lipton Iced Tea flavour. It’s super easy and only takes a few minutes! Let’s get started!
1 Step: Brew the tea! For one serving, I only prepared about half a cup. I find that Birchall Great Rift Breakfast Mixture (in tea bags or loose leaf) is ideal for this drink, but you can also use Lipton tea bags or any other plain black tea.
2 Step: Add a teaspoon of white sugar and stir until completely dissolved.
3 Step: Now it’s period to cool the tea, so add plenty of ice and a little cold water.
4 Step: Add the peach flavour and the magic element to make this homemade iced tea taste like Lipton Peach Iced Tea ASDA 50% Fruit White Grape & Peach High Juice. Sainsbury’s has a similar one that’s also delicious: Sainsbury’s High Juice Squash White Grape & Beauty No Added Sugar. I always add a generous amount because I love the peachy flavour it gives. Pour some into your cut-glass, stir with a spoon or refillable straw, and add more to taste. Enjoy!
That’s it! It’s super informal to make homemade peach iced tea that palates like Lipton iced tea by following the steps above. This way, it’s more economical to make your own iced tea, and you use fewer plastic bottles – a win-win!
