Chilled Peach Lemonade with Mint

As seen in Sip, Savor, and Celebrate.

Chill out this summer with a blend of fresh peaches, cold lemonade, and a handful of mint. It’s just sweet enough, just tangy enough, and topped with slices of peach and mint leaves for a splash of color and aroma. Toss everything in your blender, pour it over ice, and tweak the taste as you like—more sweet or more tart. It’s light, refreshing, looks gorgeous, and is made for sunny days outside with your best people. Every mouthful brings a cool burst that’s extra special from the mint on top.

Sip on this energizing, fruity peach lemonade that’s a snap to whip up. Nothing beats an icy glass of peachy lemonade on steamy afternoons, lazy picnics, or weekend hangouts under the sun. The zingy mix of fresh peach and citrus, punched up with cooling mint, will make you want another round all summer long. Easy, fun, and a total crowd-pleaser.

We absolutely crushed pitchers of this peach lemonade last July, and now everyone begs for it at every cookout. It’s a total summer tradition.

Chill Peach Lemonade Ingredients

  • Ice cubes: Toss in plenty to keep everything super frosty without watering it down
  • Lemon and peach slices: Make your pitcher look stunning and sneak in a little more fruity goodness
  • Peaches (fresh): Grab ones that feel soft enough to press—they’ll be the sweetest
  • Mint (fresh): Pick out bright, healthy leaves and skip any that look iffy or spotted for the best flavor pop
  • Lemonade: Either mix up your own or grab your top store-bought pick—whatever’s easiest

Easy Step-by-Step Directions

Chill Out:
Dump ice in glasses or straight into your big pitcher so everything stays frosty and never gets watered down Top each glass with a mint leaf and a juicy slice of peach right before handing out
Bring it All Together:
Pour the blended peach mix into your pitcher, add the rest of the lemonade, and stir everything until it’s nice and smooth Drop in those saved peach and lemon slices to make it really festive
Strain if You Want:
If you’re into the super smooth stuff, pour the peach blend through a mesh strainer and use a spoon to push it through If you’re cool with a thicker sip, just skip this part and move on
Peach Blending Time:
Give your peaches a solid rinse since you’ll toss in the peels Chop and take out the pits Save about a quarter of slices for later, then toss the rest in a blender with a splash of lemonade and some mint Blend till you’ve got a creamy mix—no chunky bits left behind
Lemonade Ready:
Get your favorite lemonade ready—homemade or from the store. Let it get nice and cold so your drink’s refreshingly chilly from the start

Mint is the little magic trick here. Whenever I toss some in, the kids get all excited for that burst of fresh flavor. Reminds me of scouring my grandma’s garden for mint as a kid to jazz up our lemonade drinks.

Keeping it Fresh

Pop leftovers in the fridge with a cover and they’ll be good for about three days. Give it a quick stir before you pour because things settle. I skip putting ice in the main pitcher so every glass stays packed with flavor, not watered down.

Switch It Up

No peaches? You can use nectarines if they're in season, or grab some frozen peaches when it’s not. Just defrost and blend the same way. Missing fresh mint? Go for mint syrup or even a dash of peppermint extract to bring the coolness.

Fun Ways to Serve

It’s the star of every summer party. Add some sparkling water or a little vodka or rum for a party cocktail. Goes awesome with grilled chicken, slices of watermelon, or a bowl of salty popcorn.

Summertime Traditions

This drink gets its vibe from classic American summers, where sweet fruits are always center stage. Down South, drinks like this have always been the go-to for sticky days. I just added more mint and started serving it in chilly glasses to keep things fresh and modern.

Common Recipe Questions

→ Is it fine to pour in ready-made lemonade for this peach drink?

Store-bought lemonade is handy and saves you time. But if you've got a few extra minutes, homemade lemonade gives a bolder, fresher flavor.

→ Should I take off the peach skins before blending them?

You can blend peaches with the skins for more color and a bit of texture. But for a silkier drink, take a minute to peel them first.

→ How can I make sure the drink doesn’t taste watered down?

Keep ice out of the pitcher! Only add ice right when you fill up each glass—that way your drink stays nice and strong.

→ Can I mix up this peach mint drink early?

Definitely! Go ahead and blend it before your friends arrive, chill it in the fridge, then toss in the fresh peach slices, lemon, and mint when you serve. It’ll look and taste its best.

→ Got any extra fun toppings for the drink?

Dress it up with lemon rounds, peach wedges, a sprig of mint, or even pop on an edible flower if you're feeling fancy.

Recipe Type: Beverages

Skill Level: Simple

Regional Style: American

Output: 6 Number of Servings (2 litres)

Special Diets: Plant-Based, Meat-Free, No Gluten, Lacks Dairy

What You'll Need

→ Herbs

01 15 millilitres mint, chopped plus some sprigs for topping

→ Fruit

02 4 or 5 juicy peaches, cleaned, pitted, sliced up

→ Base

03 2 litres chilled lemonade (store-bought or your own)

Steps to Follow

Step 01

Pop some ice in glasses and dress them up with a few more mint leaves and peach slices before pouring.

Step 02

Dump the peachy-mint mix into a big jug, then stir in the rest of your lemonade. Stir it up and drop in the leftover peaches and a couple thin lemon rounds if you want it fancy.

Step 03

Toss most of the peach slices (save a few), mint, and about 250 millilitres of your lemonade in a blender. Blend until it’s really smooth. Want it totally silky? Give it a quick strain through a fine sieve.

Step 04

Scrub your peaches, pull out the pits, and chop them up. Keep about a quarter of the slices for later—they’ll look pretty in the jug or glass.

Step 05

Make your lemonade or grab it from the fridge if it’s store-bought. Let it stay cold till you need it.

Additional Tips

  1. Grab peaches that are super ripe and use fresh mint for the best result. Blending and then straining will get rid of any bits and leave it smooth.
  2. You can chill the pitcher or simply toss ice directly into cups to keep the flavor going strong.
