Fresh peach lemonade, so far my favourite lemonade. This peach lemonade recipe is so simple and tastes so fresh, without dyes, powders and all the extra additives. This is a perfect drink to sit back and relax on a warm summer day. It is the perfect balance of the sweetness from the peaches, and the tartness from the lemons. The pitcher only lasted a day and a half! Next time you want a refreshing, easy homemade lemonade be sure to give this a try! Do you have any other flavor ideas? Be sure to let me know below!
