Frozen Peach Lemonade Recipe
The Frozen Peach Lemonade Recipe is a refreshing, fruity drink that is perfect for hot summer days. Sweet peaches, tangy lemon and crushed ice create a delicious, icy beverage.
Ingredients
- 3 ripe peaches peeled and sliced
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice about 4–5 lemons
- ½ cup sugar or honey adjust to taste
- 2 cups cold water
- 2 cups ice cubes
- Optional: fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
Prepare the Fruit
- Peel and slice the peaches into small pieces. Remove any pits. Wash and juice the lemons. Preparing the fruit first makes blending easier and smoother.
Combine Ingredients in Blender
- Add peach slices, lemon juice, sugar and cold water into a blender. Blend on high for 30–60 seconds until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Add Ice for Frozen Texture
- Add ice cubes to the blender. Blend again until you reach a slushy, frozen consistency. The ice makes the drink icy and refreshing.
Pour Into Pitcher
- Pour the blended lemonade into a large pitcher. Stir gently to mix evenly. This makes it easy to serve to multiple people.
Serve in Glasses
- Pour the frozen peach lemonade into glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves or a peach slice on the rim. Serve immediately for the best icy texture.
Optional Fizzy Twist
- For a sparkling version, top each glass with a splash of soda or sparkling water. This adds light bubbles and enhances the refreshing flavor.
Notes
- Freeze peaches ahead of time for an even thicker slushy texture.
- Substitute sugar with honey or agave syrup for a natural sweetener.
- Add a few frozen raspberries or strawberries for a fruity twist.
- Garnish with mint or lemon slices for visual appeal.
- Adjust ice quantity to control thickness of frozen lemonade.
- Make a larger batch in a blender and store chilled for parties.
