Peach Mint Drink (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Peach Lemonade
01 -
8 cups of lemonade, either made from scratch or your go-to store-bought version
02 -
4-5 peaches that are nice and ripe
03 -
A tablespoon of fresh mint leaves, plus more if you'd like to decorate
04 -
Slices of lemon for decoration
05 -
Ice cubes to serve it nice and chilled
# Instructions:
01 -
Use your favorite lemonade recipe or just grab some premade lemonade. Keep it on standby or pop it into the fridge to chill.
02 -
Give the peaches a rinse and cut them up, tossing the pits. Save about a fourth of the slices to use as a decoration in glasses or the pitcher.
03 -
Throw the majority of the peach slices, one cup of lemonade, and a tablespoon of mint leaves into your blender. Let it run until it’s turned into a smooth blend.
04 -
If you'd prefer your drink smoother, run the peach mix through a fine strainer into your pitcher. If you’re okay with it being thicker, skip this step.
05 -
Pour the rest of your lemonade into the pitcher with the peach blend, then stir everything so it's all combined nicely.
06 -
Toss the reserved peach slices and some lemon slices into the pitcher for a nice look. Pour the drink into glasses over ice, and for extra flair, add peaches and mint leaves on top.
# Notes:
01 -
Look for peaches that are super ripe, soft, and smell sweet for the best taste.
02 -
To keep the drink from getting watered down, only add ice to the glasses when serving.
03 -
You can turn this into a grown-up drink by adding a splash of vodka or rum to each glass.
