Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh peaches (about 6 peaches)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon zest (about 2 lemons)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 6 cups cold water (divided)
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)
- ice optional
For garnishing:
- lemon slices
- fresh peach slices
- fresh mint
Instructions
- In a medium sized saucepan over medium heat, combine peaches, lemon zest, vanilla, sugar and 2 cups water. Do not bring to a boil so don’t be afraid to reduce the heat.
- Allow peaches to cook until they are soft enough where you can easily crush them, about 15-25 minutes (time will vary greatly depending on ripeness of peaches).
- Mash peaches with a masher or wooden spoon.
- Remove from heat and let it cool completely in the refrigerator.
- I recommend letting the mixture cool completely before straining solids so that the flavor has more time to infuse into your lemonade.
- Strain and discard solids (or set aside for a different dish).
- Pour in fresh lemon juice, cold water, and ice.
- Pour into glasses and garnish with lemon slices, fresh peach slices, or mint.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- You can also decide to leave some of the pulp in instead of straining it all out for additional peach flavor. If you choose to do this, I recommend only using about ½ cup at most since the pulp is quite thick.
