4 ripe peaches (about 2 pounds)
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup honey (or agave nectar for vegan)
10 fresh mint leaves, plus extra for garnish
8 cups cold water
Ice cubes for serving
Instructions
Halve and pit the peaches. Puree fruit in a blender until smooth
Strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve, pressing with a spatula to extract liquid

Stir well until honey is fully dissolved
Add cold water, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to chill

Notes
Use very ripe peaches for maximum sweetness and juice
Chill lemonade for best results
