Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ripe peaches, peeled and pitted
- 1 cup cold water or fresh lemon-lime soda for fizz
- 1–2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional)
- 1 cup crushed ice
- Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- Begin by peeling and pitting the ripe peaches. For ease, blanch peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then transfer to ice water to remove skins easily.
- Put the peaches, crushed ice, and water or soda into a high-speed blender. Add honey or agave syrup if desired for extra sweetness. Blend until smooth and slushy. Add extra peach slices for a more intense flavor if preferred.
- Pour the mixture into glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately for a refreshing treat. Optionally, add a splash of vanilla or lemon juice for variety.
Notes
- For best results, use ripe peaches for maximum sweetness and flavor.
- Pour into airtight containers and freeze leftovers. Blend briefly before serving to restore texture.
- Adjust the amount of crushed ice based on your desired thickness.
- For a vegan or dairy-free version, use agave syrup and soda water or coconut water.
