Peach and Camomile Tea Refresher

I have been enjoying different teas lately and decided they should be making their way into my cocktails. I love using tea in cocktails because there are so many flavors out there. Tea is also an easy and cheap way to add flavor to your cocktail without flavoring the booze. I used a very delicate chamomile tea in today’s cocktail and amped it up with some peaches. This would be a great cocktail to make into a punch or serve at a day event. Next time you are out of ideas for cocktails look in your cabinet for tea. Brew it up, cool it, and mix it with your favorite fruit for a decadent cocktail. Cheers to tea!
