Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 3-4 peaches
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 ½ cups water, divided
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice, about 6 lemons
- ice
- fresh peach slices, for garnish
- fresh lemon slices, for garnish
Instructions
- Wash 3-4 peaches and remove the pits. You can remove the skin, but I like leaving it on for this syrup. Dice the peaches.
- Add the peaches,1 cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup of the 4 ½ cups water, to a saucepan and cook over medium until the peaches are soft and syrupy, and the sugar has all dissolved and is bubbling, about 7-8 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and very carefully transfer the mixture to a blender or a food processor. Place the lid on and cover with a clean kitchen towel before blending until smooth. You can strain out the solids if you would like by using a spoon or spatula to press the syrup through a fine mesh sieve. Cover the syrup and let it cool to room temperature or chill it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use it.
- When you are ready to serve the lemonade, combine the peach syrup, 1 cup fresh lemon juice, 4 cups of cold water, and ice in a pitcher. Stir to combine. Add fresh lemon slices, and fresh peach slices, for garnish, if desired.
