Peach Green Tea Lemonade

Peach nectar and fresh lemon replace bottled flavored concentrate in this three-part cooler. Brew green tea a little stronger than drinking strength because ice and juice soften it. A tiny pinch of salt will not taste savory; it pulls the peach forward and tames the sharp edge of refrigerated lemon juice.
