Step-by-Step Instructions for Refreshing Peach Lemonade
- Wash four ripe peaches thoroughly under cool, running water. Slice the peaches into wedges, discarding the pits.
- Juice three large lemons, aiming for about one cup of lemon juice, ensuring to catch any seeds.
- Combine one cup of sugar with two cups of hot water. Stir until the sugar dissolves, creating a simple syrup.
- Blend the sliced peaches, lemon juice, and two cups of water on high until smooth, about 30-60 seconds.
- If preferred, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a pitcher for a smoother texture.
- Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled over ice cubes, garnished with fresh mint leaves or peach slices.

Notes
