Perfect Peach Tea Recipe?

In my quest for concocting a super-delicious peached iced tea, I whipped up this today:
1) 3 qts boiling water plus cold water to make a full gallon
2) 10 Tetley tea bags (regular)
3) 1 cup sugar
4) all the juice from a lg can of peaches
5) peaches to cover the bottom of 1 gal pitcher
6) 3/4-1 tsp ground ginger (eyeballed it)

Stirred it all up and am sipping it while I clean. I put a few chunks of peaches in my Irish coffee mug (I love these for hot AND cold drinks!) and added ice cubes and freshly brewed tea. It's good, but I'm still trying to come up with (or find) the perfect peach tea. BTW, it's to go with tomorrow's lunch! (See next part of post.)

Got a recipe?
NOTE TO SELF; THIS WAS NOT SUPER-DELICIOUS. GOOD, BUT NOT "IT." FO0R FUTURE: TRY MAKING SARAH'S SOUTHERN SWATE TAY, SUBSTITUTING 1/4 OF THE SUGAR WITH ALL JUICE FROM LG PEACH CAN, PLUS FRESH, SLICED PEACHES DURING STEEPING PROCESS.
