Notes
Tip from my kitchen: the riper the peach and melon, the less maple syrup you need – taste the syrup before sweetening. For extra freshness I freeze some of the tea into ice cubes so the drink doesn't turn watery as they melt. I blend the leftover fruit pulp with a little coconut milk into a quick ice cream, so nothing goes to waste.
