  • Is there any other fruit as bright and summer-y as the peach? The juicy fruit has been celebrated the world over for its fresh, sweet flavor. Vincent VanGogh, the famous painter of old, liked them so much he featured them in some of his paintings - most notably his work Pink Peach Trees painted in 1888. The people of Georgia like them so much that they made it their state fruit and celebrate them every year at the Georgia Peach festival. This festival sees among its many attractions, the baking of the world's largest Peach Cobbler and the annual crowning of Miss Georgia Peach. (No doubt VanGogh, were he still alive, would have had her sit for a portrait!) But why the name Peach Lift? Well brew yourself a pot, pour a cup hot or over ice and we're sure you'll see what we mean!

  • Brewing Hot

    Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Even though milk and a dash of sugar help enhance the flavor character on this tea, it is perfectly acceptable to consume this tea straight-up.

    Brewing Cold

    (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 6 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. [A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water]. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or milky when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!
