Peach, Tea and Bourbon Slushie

"This strong libation takes a bit more than stirring, but it holds a smoother, deeper, more quenching flavor than the usual fruity jug cocktails. "

Serves: 6

 

2 English breakfast tea bags

1 ¾ cups boiling water

3 teaspoons sugar

4 peaches, diced into bite-sized pieces

1 ¼ cups bourbon

Once the water boils, drop in the tea bags to steep for 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar and let it cool completely. Then pour into a blender, drop in the peach pieces and bourbon, and blend until smooth. Transfer the mixture into a plastic container or resealable freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 hours, testing after an hour until it reaches slushie consistency. Pour into a large jug and serve, preferably in chilled glasses.
