Description
3 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
½ cup granulated sugar
4 cups water, divided
¾ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)
Ice cubes, for serving
Peach slices and lemon wedges, for garnish
Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Directions:
Make the Peach Syrup: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, and 1 cup of water. Stir and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 5
minutes, until the peaches soften and the sugar dissolves.
Blend & Strain: Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Blend the peach mixture until smooth, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp.
Mix the Lemonade: In a large pitcher, combine the peach syrup, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and the remaining 3 cups of water. Stir well.
Serve & Enjoy: Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour in the peach lemonade, and garnish with peach slices, lemon wedges, and fresh mint leaves if desired.
