This chilled Peach Lemonade first happened when I wanted a zingy treat after doing yard work. The mix of juicy peaches and sharp lemon tastes like sunshine in a glass every time.
Frosty Ingredients
- Water: blends everything so it pours like a dream and you can always tweak it for a thinner sip Add a bit, blend, then taste for just the right balance
- Fresh lemon juice: pops the flavor and adds brightness Choose lemons that feel heavy—they’re juicier
- Honey: makes things sweet and smooth For deeper flavor, use raw honey if you have it
- Frozen peaches: these add that creamy chill you want Look for frozen peaches without extra sugar—they make the flavors shine

- Serve It Up:
- Pour your chilled lemonade straight into glasses, toss in a sprig of mint if you’ve got one, grab a straw, and enjoy right away

My favorite part? That zing of sharp lemon alongside soft peach Every time I whip this up with my kid she loves pressing start on the blender and sneaking tastes right from the jug
How to Store
Keep any extra lemonade sealed up in the fridge It’ll settle, so just shake it before you pour If prepping in advance, blend with no ice and freeze in ice cube trays Later, throw those cubes back in the blender for a ready-made slushie
Swaps and Changes
If honey’s out, grab agave or maple syrup for a different kind of sweet taste Can’t find frozen peaches? Try pineapple or mango for a tropical twist Fresh lemon is best but bottled is fine if that’s what you’ve got
Serving Ideas
This drink is perfect poolside or chilling in a picnic cooler Pair it with fruit skewers or dainty sandwiches For a fancy touch, add a squeeze of fresh lemon or a handful of mint leaves right before serving

FAQs About the Recipe
- → Can you swap in canned peaches?
Yep, grab canned if fresh aren’t handy. Maybe dial back the honey (canned peaches are sweet already) and toss in extra ice.
- → How do I tweak the sweetness?
Add a squeeze of honey, blend, then taste it. Too tart? Drop in a bit more honey until it’s just right for you.
- → Can this stay cold if I prep it early?
Honestly, it's best just blended. But freeze the batch if you want and whiz it up again when you’re ready to drink. That gets it frosty again.
- → What swaps for honey work?
Agave or maple syrup both taste great. Or if you want something softer, simple syrup does the trick.
- → How do I boost the flavor?
Toss in some fresh mint, grate in ginger, or use sparkling water to give your drink a fun twist.
