Ingredients
Scale

- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice – Helps preserve color and adds freshness.
- 1–2 tbsp honey (optional) – For extra sweetness.

Instructions
- Prepare the peaches – Wash, peel (optional), and remove the pits. Cut into chunks.
- Blend the ingredients – Add peaches, water, and lemon juice to a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth.

💡 Serving Idea: Garnish with fresh mint, a peach slice, or a cinnamon stick for an extra flavor boost!
Notes
- For the best flavor, use ripe peaches that are slightly soft to the touch.
- If you prefer a thicker juice, blend with less water and skip straining.
- Want a tropical twist? Add a splash of coconut water or blend with mango!
