Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Fresh peaches
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or sugar)
- 2 cups Cold water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup Sparkling water (optional)
Instructions
Wash the fresh peaches thoroughly under cool water.
Peel the peaches and slice them into small chunks, discarding the pit.
In a blender, combine the peach chunks, fresh lemon juice, honey (or sugar), and cold water.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and well-combined.
Strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove any pulp, if desired.
Add the ice cubes and fresh mint leaves directly into the pitcher for added flavor and chill factor.
If you prefer a fizzy version, gently stir in the sparkling water right before serving.
Pour the Peach Cooler into chilled glasses, garnish with additional mint leaves or a peach slice if desired, and serve immediately.
