- Yield: 5 1x
Description
Summer’s sweetest drink, Refreshing Peach Lemonade, blends tangy citrus with ripe, juicy peaches for a perfectly balanced cooler. Crisp and invigorating, this beverage promises to quench your thirst and transport senses to a sunny orchard paradise.
Ingredients
- 4 peaches (ripe, peeled, pitted, and sliced)
- 1 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed, about 4–6 lemons)
- ¾ cup sugar (adjust to taste)
- 4 cups water (cold)
- 1 cup ice (plus more for serving)
- Optional: peach or lemon slices
- Optional: fresh mint (for garnish)
Instructions
- Peach Puree Creation: Pulverize fresh peaches with water in a blender until achieving a silky, uniform consistency. Optionally refine the mixture by straining through a fine mesh sieve for an ultra-smooth texture.
- Lemonade Fusion: Transfer the peach puree into a spacious pitcher, introducing freshly squeezed lemon juice, granulated sugar, and cold water. Vigorously mix until sugar completely dissolves, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.
- Chilling and Preparation: Incorporate ice into the pitcher, stirring thoroughly to distribute coolness. For an enhanced refreshing experience, allow the concoction to rest in the refrigerator for approximately one hour, intensifying its crisp profile.
- Elegant Presentation: Distribute the chilled lemonade into ice-filled glasses, adorning each serving with delicate peach slices, zesty lemon wedges, or aromatic mint leaves to elevate the visual and sensory appeal.
Notes
- Use a fine mesh sieve to remove peach pulp for a silky-smooth texture, ensuring no unwanted fibers disrupt the drink’s refreshing quality.
- Adjust sugar levels gradually, tasting as you mix to create the perfect sweet-tart harmony without overwhelming the natural peach and lemon flavors.
- Refrigerate the lemonade for at least an hour to allow flavors to meld and develop a more complex, integrated taste profile.
- Select ripe, in-season peaches for maximum sweetness and flavor; frozen peaches work well as an alternative during off-peak months.
