Refreshing Peach Lemonade

Ingredients:

4 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced

½ cup granulated sugar

4 cups water, divided

¾ cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons)

Ice cubes, for serving

Peach slices and lemon slices, for garnish

Directions:

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, and 1 cup of water. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until the peaches soften and release their juices.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then blend the mixture until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp if desired.

In a large pitcher, combine the peach purée with the remaining 3 cups of water and fresh lemon juice. Stir well.

Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill.

Serve over ice and garnish with peach and lemon slices. Enjoy!

For a sparkling twist, replace 1 cup of water with club soda just before serving.

Use honey or agave instead of sugar for a natural sweetener option.
