{tasty tuesdays} Ginger Peach Tea

This is a drink that I first made long ago when my mom was hosting a women's morning fellowship group every Saturday-- it was a brunch affair. Yay, brunch! I think my mom made this recipe up....? Wherever it came from, it was an instant hit with all the ladies, and I've made it many times since then for lots of different occasions. I hadn't made it in years and years, but it popped back into my mind when I was trying to think of a refreshing non-alcoholic drink I could make for Jeremy's party-- after all, us pregnant girls didn't want to miss out on drinking something! This is always tasty and refreshing.

Ginger Peach Tea
1 can frozen white-grape peach juice concentrate, thawed
water
2 heaping tablespoons instant iced tea, unsweetened
2-liters ginger ale
In punch bowl, or VERY large pitcher, mix water with concentrate according to directions on can. Stir in instant iced tea granules, until dissolved completely. Gently and slowly pour in ginger ale. Stir a few times with a spoon to make sure it is all mixed together.
Serve chilled, over ice. If desired, garnish with fresh peach slices in bowl or on glass.

Sounds yummy - and the ginger ale would also help to quell any lingering nausea for "the pregnants" (as your sisters would say)!
