Peachy Thyme Lemonade
Introduction
Choose summer's ripest peaches for this refreshing lemonade. It's ready in no time--you can keep the skins on the peaches, which speeds up prep work.
Ingredients
5 peaches, halved
4 sprigs fresh thyme
4 lemons juiced, about 1/2 cup
2 tablespoons agave nectar or other sweetener
4 sprigs fresh thyme
4 lemons juiced, about 1/2 cup
2 tablespoons agave nectar or other sweetener
Directions
Place a saucepan over medium heat, then add the peaches and thyme. Cook 5 minutes, stirring often to break up the fruit (use the back of a wooden spoon). Add one cup of water and scrape to remove any bits that might be stuck to the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
Puree the mixture in a blender and then strain if you prefer a smooth texture. Add the remaining ingredients and an additional 4 cups of water, then stir to combine.
Fill 6 tall glasses with 1 cup of ice then top with 8 ounces of the peach lemonade. Serve chilled.
Serving Size: Makes 6 eight ounce servings.
