- 1 ½ ounces of Peach Schnapps
- Peach wedges for garnish
- Ice
Instructions
- Prepare peach wedge garnishes.
- In a cocktail shaker, add tea, jam, bourbon, schnapps, and ice.

- Pour into a pint mason jar.

Serving Suggestions
Sweet Tea is perfect for grill parties, Sunday suppers, back porch sipping and Saturday tailgating parties.
A fun summer menu might include an arugula salad with peaches and almonds, Southern BBQ, bourbon peach baked beans, and of course banana pudding.
Notes
If you are making a big batch, stir the jam into hot tea while tea is cooling. For every 3 cups of unsweet tea, use 3 tablespoons of jam. (There are 4 cups in a quart)
Like all our recipes, this mixed drink was developed with Friend Drift Inn Bourbon Peach Cobbler Jam. Other products may not produce the same result.
Variations – Charlie likes a quick squeeze of lime and a lime garnish in addition to the peach wedge.
