Peach Mint Lemonade (Printable Version)
# 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:
01 -
Pop some ice in glasses and dress them up with a few more mint leaves and peach slices before pouring.
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.
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.
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.
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:
01 -
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.
02 -
You can chill the pitcher or simply toss ice directly into cups to keep the flavor going strong.
