REFRESHING MINT PEACH LEMONADE

I am so excited about this recipe! It is made with all natural ingredients and the color turned out so pretty! This mint peach lemonade is perfect for these last few hot summer days.

INGREDIENTS:

3 Cups water

Small handful Fresh Mint Leaves

4 Whole White Peaches

1/4 Cup Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice

3 TBSP Agave Nectar

DIRECTIONS:

In a blender, puree 2 1/2 peaches. Set aside.

Bring 3 cups of water to a boil. Once it is boiling, add the handful of fresh mint leaves and one sliced white peach. Steep the mint and peach for 15 minutes and allow to cool. Once it is cool, pour everything through a strainer.

In a serving pitcher, add the fresh squeezed lemon juice, 2 cups of the steeped liquid, the agave, and 1 1/2 cups of the peach puree. Mix all of these ingredients together.

Add ice, or store in the fridge to cool. Garnish with thinly sliced lemons, fresh mint leaves and sliced white peaches.

Enjoy!

UPDATE:

Originally for this recipe, I had 1/2 cup of lemon juice and 2 1/2 TBSP of agave to sweeten. Personally I like my lemonade very tart, however most people prefer it a little sweeter! So I updated the recipe, adding a little more agave and decreasing the lemon juice amount. Hope you like it!
