See list below for everything you need

Prep Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 15 Mins

Serving size: 18

Ingredients:

Peach Simple Syrup

• 6 C/ 9 Large peaches peeled and chopped

• 6 C. Water ( I prefer Spring water, but tap water will work as well)

• 1 1/2 C. Sugar ( Regular, Brown Sugar, Honey or substitute with stevia )

Lemonade

• 1 C. Lemon juice, approximately 6 large lemons

• 9 C. Water ( Sparkling water or coconut water )

• Lemon Slices for garnish

• Peach Slices for garnish

• Optional: Mint for garnish

Instructions:

• Combine the chopped peaches, sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stirring often

• Reduce to a simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the peaches are nice and soft

• Remove from heat and let cool in the fridge for about 30 minutes, once at room temp. Strain all the syrup and toss the pulp.

• Juice the lemons

• In a large pitcher or drink dispenser, combine the peach syrup you made, lemon juice and the water

• Give it a taste and adjust to your preference.

• Serve over ice and enjoy!
  

If you are making this for a BBQ or a get together and want to spike it, I enjoyed adding in a little vodka to it and garnishing with mint. Of course you can't forget the mason jars for serving glasses, gives it the authentic southern lemonade feel.

For a deeper, darker color use the peaches with the reddest skin and make the syrup with the skin intact.

Will be good in the fridge for up to 7 days and 2 months in the freezer. Enjoy!!! I hope you love this recipe as much as I do.
