Lemonade
- 1 recipe Homemade Lemonade (or 8 cups of your favorite lemonade)
Fruit and Herbs
- 4–5 fresh peaches
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
- Prepare Lemonade: Prepare the homemade lemonade according to your preferred recipe or use 8 cups of your favorite lemonade. Chill or set aside for later use.
- Slice Peaches: Wash and slice the peaches, removing the pits. Reserve about one-quarter of the peach slices to add to the pitcher and for garnish.
- Blend Peaches and Mint: Place the remaining peach slices in a blender with 1 cup of lemonade and 1 tablespoon of fresh mint. Blend until smooth to create a flavorful peach puree. For a thinner consistency, strain the mixture through a fine sieve or strainer into the pitcher.
- Combine and Garnish: Add the remaining lemonade to the pitcher and stir well to combine with the peach mixture. Add fresh peach slices and lemon slices for a decorative and fresh appearance. Garnish individual glasses with fresh mint leaves and peach slices.
- Serve: Add ice cubes to the pitcher or pour the peach lemonade over ice in individual glasses to keep the drink chilled without diluting the flavor.
Notes
- For a smoother texture, strain the blended peach mixture before adding to the pitcher.
- You can adjust the sweetness by modifying the lemonade recipe or adding a sweetener of your choice.
- Fresh mint enhances the flavor but can be omitted if unavailable or to suit taste preferences.
- This recipe can be doubled for larger gatherings.
- Serve immediately or keep chilled in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours for the best taste.
