Cool off this summer with a homemade treat – Peach Lemonade! Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- 4 ripe peaches, peeled and pitted
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 4 cups cold water
- Ice cubes
- Fresh peach slices
- Lemon wedges
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Now, here’s how to whip it up:
Directions:
- Blend those peeled and pitted peaches until they’re nice and smooth.
- Strain that peach puree through a sieve into a pitcher to get rid of any lumps.
- To the pitcher, add in your lemon juice and granulated sugar. Give it a good stir until the sugar’s all dissolved.
- Pour in the cold water and mix it all up.
- Taste it. If you want it sweeter, throw in some more sugar.
- Stick the pitcher in the fridge for at least an hour to get it nice and chilled.
- When it’s chilled and you’re ready to serve, fill up your glasses with ice cubes.
- Pour that peachy goodness over the ice.
- Garnish each glass with peach slices, lemon wedges, and mint leaves if you’re feeling fancy.
- Give it a gentle stir, and you’re good to go!
