Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh peaches pitted and chopped
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice about 4-6 lemons
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 cups cold water
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh peach slices and lemon wedges for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. In a blender, combine the chopped peaches and 1 cup of cold water. Blend until smooth.
  2. Strain the peach puree through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove the pulp, pressing down with a spoon to extract as much juice as possible.
  3. Add the fresh lemon juice and sugar to the pitcher with the peach juice. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  4. Pour in the remaining 3 cups of cold water and mix well. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired by adding more sugar or water.
  5. Chill the peach lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
  6. Serve over ice and garnish with fresh peach slices and lemon wedges if desired.
