Peach Paradise is a gentle stone-fruit infusion, and it asks for almost nothing: boiling water and three minutes. For a little more, slide a thin slice of fresh peach into the cup at the end. It echoes the peach in the tea and adds a soft, real sweetness as it warms.

Do not over-steep, or the soft peach note turns dull. Makes one mug.
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Lipton Peach Paradise
- 250ml freshly drawn water at 100C, just off the boil
- 1 thin slice of fresh peach (skin on)
- 1 250ml mug, warmed
- 1 saucer for covering during steep
Method
- Warm a mug and fill it with 250ml of freshly boiled water.
- Add the tea bag, cover and steep for three minutes.
- Lift out the bag without pressing it.
- Slide in a thin slice of fresh peach and drink.
- Three minutes is plenty; steep it longer and the delicate peach flavour fades behind the tannin.
