INTERESTING FACTS REGARDING TEA:
Peach tea is known in Eastern cultures to be a kidney cleanser and uses in detoxification. Many people claim peaches are good for relief of stomach ulcers and other digestive issues like colitis and kidney disease. This may be due to their high fiber and potassium content.

Cultivation of peaches began in China as early as 2000BC. The winds of trade brought peaches to Greece and Persia, where they were instantly accepted. The juicy fruit was also a big hit with the Romans, who cultivated it throughout the empire. From Italy, peaches made the leap across the Atlantic, where early settlers planted them throughout the East Coast. Soon they were so plentiful, local botanists thought of them as native fruits.

HOW TO BREW:
Add 360ml of boiling water to 1-2 teaspoons of tea and brew for 3-5 minutes. Serve as is. Refill with boiling water up to 3 times. The delicious ingredients can then be eaten. Try iced with fresh peach garnish. Store in a cool dry place. Serve in our Big One Tea Pot!
