Peaches & Cream Latte
Celebrate National Peach Month!
What is summertime without peaches?! Peach season began in June and lasts until the end of August. August is when peaches are at their peak. Actually, not only is the whole month of August dedicated to peaches, but August 22nd is National Peach Day! This Peaches & Cream Latte is a super delicious way to celebrate. It's super simple, our Peach Rooibos has a great, natural peach flavor, with actual peach pieces in the tea. The addition of fresh peach slices in this recipe adds just the right amount of sweetness without needing the addition of sweetener. To kick it up a notch, we topped off our iced tea with some oat milk to create a delicious peaches & cream flavor. If you really wanted to go all out, you could make a sweet cream cold foam and top off your iced tea with that instead!
Delicious Benefits
Not only is this recipe extremely simple and tasty, but it's also packed with numerous health promoting compounds. Because no sugar is needed, you can enjoy the full benefits of Peach Rooibos and peaches in general. Rooibos tea has tons of benefits such as an impressive dose of antioxidants, balancing blood sugar, and more. Peaches are low in calories with no saturated fats, plus they're full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
Peach Rooibos
Infused with the mouth-watering flavor of Georgia peaches, this tea is bursting with summer sunshine. Caffeine-free rooibos tea and the addition of apricot, apple, and marigold petals complete the blend. Try it iced with a pinch of sweetener and enjoy a slower pace of life.
Ingredients
"Whistling Kettle's Peach Rooibos tea brings me back to some great memories and my taste buds couldn't be happier! This is a nice smooth, lightly fruited pleasant tea, and it is soooo good as an iced tea for this summer, and of course a hot tea when the weather gets cooler"
