Everyone goes to the Olive Garden to enjoy eating Italian-family style. If you go there for a summer lunch, you will probably want something light and refreshing to drink, like iced tea.

Olive Garden offers you a choice of iced teas that go very well with summer lunches. One of my favorites is peach iced tea, although it doesn’t appear to be on the Olive Garden’s menu anymore. However, you can easily make this iced tea and enjoy it at home.

Peach Syrup Makes This Iced Tea Special

Olive Garden uses Monin’s gourmet syrups to flavor several of its drinks. Using Monin’s peach syrup is an easy way to make this peach iced tea, but if you prefer to make your own syrup with fresh peaches, you can.

I’ve also discovered two other products – Kern’s Peach Nectar and Torani Peach Syrup – which also make delicious peach iced tea.

My peach tea recipe includes instructions on how to make peach syrup.

Ingredients

Here’s a list of what you need for homemade peach iced tea:

  • Family-size iced tea bags
  • Water
  • Sugar
  • Fresh peaches

Peach Iced Tea is a Refreshing Drink for Summer

There is something extra refreshing about this iced tea, and there is no reason why you can’t enjoy fresh homemade peach iced tea all through the summer. It adds a perfect, peachy touch to outdoor barbeques.

Olive Garden is offering a variation on this tea called Bellini Peach-Raspberry Iced Tea, which also sounds delicious.

    “Steep the peaches for about 30 minutes strain out the teaches, and you will have the syrup.”

    HAHAHA Strain out the teaches:) When I was young, my brother got into trouble in grade school because he called the teacher “Teach ka dee dee” This brought back that wonderful memory. Yeah, of my brother getting into trouble. It was usually I who got into trouble. I was the little sister, always mischevious:)

    Can I use sugar substitute and if so, what would be the desired amount? I am new to being diabetic so sugar substitutes confuse me something awful.
