Refreshing Peach Lemonade is a sweet, tangy, and fruity summer drink made with real peaches and fresh lemon juice. Perfect for barbecues, parties, or a relaxing day on the porch, this homemade lemonade is fresh, bright, and better than store-bought.

Ingredients

  • 3 peaches, peeled and chopped
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 46 lemons)
  • 4 cups cold water
  • Ice, for serving
  • Optional: peach slices or lemon wheels for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine peaches and sugar over medium heat. Cook 5–7 minutes until peaches are soft and sugar dissolves.
  2. Let mixture cool slightly, then blend until smooth.
  3. Strain purée through a fine mesh sieve for a smoother drink (optional).
  4. In a pitcher, combine peach purée, lemon juice, and cold water. Stir well.
  5. Taste and adjust—add more water for a lighter flavor or extra sugar if needed.
  6. Serve over ice, garnished with peach slices or lemon wheels.

Notes

  • Swap some water for sparkling water or club soda for a fizzy version.
  • Add a splash of vodka or bourbon for an adult twist.
  • Mix in strawberries, raspberries, or other fruits for variation.
  • Adjust sugar to taste or use honey/agave for a lighter option.
