How to make the peach syrup
In a blender, combine one cup water, sugar, and the chopped peaches.
Blend for two to three seconds, just enough to break them down
Pour the mixture into a large pot.
Top it off with the rest of the water (one cup) and heat on the stove on medium heat.
Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer for five minutes.
Remove from heat, let it sit, and steep for 30 more minutes.
Sieve the syrup through a fine sieve into a large pitcher or jar. Press down on the peach puree to extract all the juice.
Let it chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
Put it all together. Combine the black tea and the peach syrup in a large pitcher. Stir to combine.
Top with ice and serve. Decorate with peach slices.
