With this Peach and Cardamom Iced Earl Grey Tea, we wanted to showcase the ever popular peach iced tea, which pairs so well with the refreshing scent of cardamom that we just had to include it.
From there, the quintessential British blend Earl Grey seemed like a no-brainer. The whole thing together works particularly well! You may want to go easy on the syrup as traditionally this is pretty sweet.
