Frozen Honey Peach Lemon

Frozen Peach Lemonade is the ultimate way to cool off in the summer and comes together in just minutes with four simple ingredients. This icy drink strikes the best balance between tart and sweet and always reminds me of backyard afternoons with friends.

I started making this Frozen Peach Lemonade when I wanted something special but not too heavy after a day in the garden. The peaches and lemon make each sip taste like pure sunshine.

Ingredients

• Frozen peaches: give the drink a thick and frosty texture and make it extra refreshing Choose ripe bagged frozen peaches with no added sugar for brightest flavor
• Honey: brings floral sweetness and blends smoothly Use raw honey if possible for a richer taste
• Fresh lemon juice: brightens everything and adds tang For juiciest lemons pick ones that feel heavy for their size
• Water: thins out the drink and helps everything blend together well Tasting as you go helps you get the perfect consistency

Step-by-Step Instructions

Add Ingredients to Blender:

Combine frozen peaches honey fresh lemon juice and water in a high speed blender That thick frozen fruit really is key for texture

Blend Until Smooth:

Start blending on low then increase speed to high Use a tamper if needed to help the fruit break down Scrape the sides and blend again for the smoothest finish

Adjust Texture:

If your lemonade is too thick pour in a splash more water or toss in some ice cubes Blend briefly again until you get a velvety texture you like

Serve and Enjoy:

Pour your Frozen Peach Lemonade into glasses right away Grab a straw and maybe a mint sprig for the finishing touch

My favorite part is that burst of tart lemon that shines through the juicy peaches Any time I make this with my daughter she loves working the blender and tasting right from the pitcher

Storage Tips

Store any leftover lemonade in a sealed jar in the fridge It may separate so shake well before serving If you want to prepare ahead blend without ice then freeze in an ice cube tray You can reblend frozen cubes when needed for instant slushies

Ingredient Substitutions

Swap out honey for agave or maple syrup for a different natural sweetness If you cannot find frozen peaches mangoes or pineapple work beautifully for a tropical twist Bottled lemon juice works in a pinch but fresh always pops

Serving Suggestions

This lemonade shines as a poolside treat or picnic cooler Offer with skewers of fresh fruit or light tea sandwiches An extra squeeze of lemon or a handful of mint leaves can dress up each glass

Frequently Asked Questions

→ Is it okay to use canned peaches?

Sure, canned peaches work. You might want to use more ice and cut back on honey since cans are sometimes sweeter.

→ How can I make it less or more sweet?

Just add a little honey, blend, and taste. Keep adding until it tastes good to you.

→ Can this be made ahead and kept cold?

It's tastiest right after blending, but you can freeze the mix and re-blend it to get that icy feel again before you pour.

→ Got a honey substitute?

Try maple syrup or agave for a different twist. Simple syrup is good if you want something milder.

→ Any tips to punch up the flavor?

Add some mint leaves, a bit of ginger, or swap the water for fizzy water to make it pop.
