Peach Tea Lemonade
Ingredients
· 1 ½ cups Smirnoff No. 21 Vodka
· 8 black tea bags
· 2 cups boiling water
· 4 cups cold water
· 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
· 1 batch peach simple syrup (recipe above)

Directions:
1. To make the simple syrup, combine peaches, sugar, and water in a large saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil. Using a potato masher or wooden spoon, break up the peaches. Turn down the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and allow the mixture to come to room temperature. Strain. If you’re not using the mixture immediately, transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 1 month.
2. To make the cocktail, add the tea bags to a heatproof pitcher. Pour the boiling water over the tea bags and allow to steep for 3 minutes. Remove the tea bags and stir in the cold water, lemon juice, peach simple syrup, and vodka. Place the pitcher in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours.
