DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat medium skillet to medium low heat and add peaches, 8oz water, and cinnamon. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-6 minutes or until peaches have begun to soften.
  2. Bring two cups of water to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the tea bags. Cover and steep for 10 minutes. Strain the tea into a pitcher. Discard the tea bags.
