🍑🍋 Refreshing Peach Lemonade

🥤 Ingredients

For the Peach Syrup:

• 3 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced

• 1 cup water

• 1/2 cup granulated sugar

For the Lemonade:

• 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4–6 lemons)

• 3–4 cups cold water (adjust to taste)

• Ice cubes

• Peach slices and lemon wheels (for garnish)

• Fresh mint (optional)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Make the peach syrup:

   • In a small saucepan, combine the sliced peaches, water, and sugar.

   • Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer for 10–12 minutes, until peaches are soft.

   • Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

   • Blend the mixture until smooth, then strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove pulp (optional, for smoother lemonade).

2. Make the lemonade:

   • In a pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and peach syrup.

   • Add 3 cups cold water and stir well. Taste and add more water for a milder flavor, or more syrup for sweetness.

3. Chill & Serve:

   • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or serve immediately over ice.

   • Garnish with peach slices, lemon wheels, and fresh mint if desired.

• Sparkling Version: Use sparkling water or club soda instead of still water.
