Fresh Peach Lemonade

This Fresh Peach Lemonade perfectly captures how I feel about summertime in one tall, cold, fruity pitcher. The flavors here are bright and vibrant from both peach nectar and freshly squeezed lemon juice.

Notes

Use freshly squeezed lemon juice! It makes a huge difference in your lemonade. The bottled stuff just doesn’t deliver the same fresh results as the real deal! As the base of your lemonade, you’ll want to make sure you don’t cut corners with your lemon juice.
Make sure you let your pitcher sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours prior to serving! That way, it’ll not only be nice and cold, but all of the flavors will have time to settle.
Don’t skip out on the fresh garnishes! They add a little extra oomph to the lemonade.
While I like this kid-friendly lemonade just the way it is, you can also make it for adults only with a cup of vodka!
