Lavender: a nice little flower with a million use
I can’t say enough good things about lavender. It is one of my favorite herbs and definitely a staple nearby. People have been using it for hundreds of years, and it is best known for its relaxing and soothing qualities. It also adds a delicious flower taste to the recipe for Persike Tea.
Lavender plants are quite hardy and grow in many climates, as long as the soil is good. It is a nice choice to focus paths to the house. In this way you can smell it while you walk past and when the windows are open.
The best part of lavender is that it is so much more than just a beautiful plant. I use it in a million different ways around the house, both as An essential oil And a dry herb. See this message for tips on how you can grow and harvest lavender yourself (plus my current list of ways to use it).
Refreshing lavender peach iced tea: how to make
Most teas, such as green tea and black tea bags, are made of the leaves of the tea liability. Herbal teas, however, use different parts of other herbs, such as mint, raspberry leaf and lavender.
Making iced tea from Lavendel has never occurred to me, but when I came across a delicious lavender tea recipe, I knew I had to try it. After a little trial and error, I now have a new favorite summer drink!
And because it is a herbal tea, it means that there is no caffeine. Plus, my children love it. Most recipes for peach tea make a peach syrup from fresh peaches (or even canned peaches) and granulated sugar. This recipe uses honey for the sweetener instead. All you do is brewed tea made from lavender flowers about ripe peaches and honey. After it is steep for a while, you can add more water. It really couldn’t be any easier!
You can remove or leave the peaches for a more intense peach-raised tea. The peach chunks are also a bit tasty to eat – peach with a hint of lavender.
This is a great recipe for using really ripe peaches that are bruised and need to be used soon. Just cut the non-so-pretty places and use the rest! You can also use frozen peaches that have thawed. Sweet Persike tea with a touch of lavender makes a refreshing drink to enjoy during peach season. You can also add some cut peaches as a garnish.

- You can leave the peaches in the tea to make a more intense peach-aromatized tea or to remove them before adding the remaining water.
- If the lavender is too strong for your taste, reduce the lavender flowers with 1 tbsp and add 1 tbsp of chamomile tea in place.
Remark: Because peaches are consistent in the environmental group Dirty dozenI try to buy them organically. Where your peaches come from, it is always a good idea to wash your products before you use them.

- Peach boost: Encourage the peaches more or simmer with the lavender for a richer taste.
- Swap sweetness: Use maple syrup or a dash of vanilla instead of honey if desired.
- Fresh twist: Add fresh mint or a dash of lemon for a brighter taste.
