Ingredients
Scale
For the Peach Syrup:
- 1.16 lbs (about 3 large) ripe peaches, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup sugar (or sweetener like honey, stevia, or erythritol)
- 2 cups water
For the Lemonade:
- 1/3 cup lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
- 3 cups water or sparkling water
- Optional: lemon slices, peach slices, mint, ice cubes
Instructions
- Cook the Peach Syrup: In a saucepan, combine peaches, sugar, and 2 cups water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often. Reduce heat and simmer 5–10 minutes until peaches are soft. Let cool for 30 minutes, then strain to make syrup.
- Prepare the Lemonade: Juice the lemons; zest first if desired. In a pitcher, mix 1 cup peach syrup, lemon juice, and 3 cups water or sparkling water. Stir and taste—adjust sweetness or tartness as preferred.
- Serve: Serve the Peach Lemonade over ice, garnished with mint, lemon, or peach slices.
Notes
- You can adjust the sweetness of the lemonade by adding more or less peach syrup.
- For a fizzy version, use sparkling water instead of still water.
