Ingredients
- 8 cups of your favorite lemonade
- 4-5 ripe peaches
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, plus extra for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Lemonade: Follow the instructions for your chosen lemonade recipe. Once ready, set it aside or place it in the fridge to chill.
- Slice the Peaches: Wash the peaches thoroughly, slice them, and remove the pits. Set aside ¼ of the slices for garnish and the pitcher.
- Blend the Peaches: Add the remaining peach slices to a blender along with 1 cup of the prepared lemonade and 1 tablespoon of fresh mint. Blend until smooth. For a smoother consistency, strain the mixture through a fine sieve or strainer into a pitcher.
- Combine and Finish: Pour the rest of the lemonade into the pitcher, stirring well to combine. Add the reserved peach slices and some lemon slices for a decorative touch.
- Serve: Garnish glasses with fresh mint and peach slices. Serve over ice, or add ice directly to the pitcher if preferred. To prevent dilution, pour the lemonade over ice just before serving.
Enjoy this refreshing summer drink!
