Ingredients
Scale
Slush Mixture
- 2 cups frozen peach slices
- ½ cup fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup honey or granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 to 1½ cups cold water or sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
Optional Garnish
- Fresh mint leaves
- Peach slices
Instructions
- Combine Base Ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine frozen peaches, fresh lemon juice, your chosen sweetener (honey or sugar), and 1 cup of cold or sparkling water. This forms the flavorful base of your slush.
- Blend with Ice: Add the ice cubes to the blender. Blend everything together until the mixture is smooth and achieves a slushy consistency. If it’s too thick, add more water gradually to reach your preferred texture.
- Adjust Flavor: Taste your peach lemonade slush and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or sugar, or enhance the tartness with extra lemon juice according to your preference.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the slush into chilled glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and peach slices if desired. Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use frozen peach slices for the best slushy texture without diluting the flavor.
- Adjust the sweetness and tartness by balancing honey/sugar and lemon juice to suit your taste.
- Sparkling water adds a refreshing fizz but can be replaced with still cold water.
- Consume immediately as the slush will melt over time and lose its texture.
- Fresh mint leaves enhance aroma and presentation but are optional.
