Ingredients
- 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 1 Cup Water
- 3 Large Peaches
- 6 Cups Sparkling Water or Club Soda
- 1 Cup Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
- 1 1/2 Cups Vodka
- Ice
Instructions
- In a small pot, combine the sugar and 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, and simmer until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- Remove the skins from 2 of the peaches: Cut an "X" in the skin on the bottom of each one. Drop in a pot of boiling water for about 30 seconds. Transfer the peaches to an ice bath, and peel when cool enough to handle. Slice each peeled peach in half and remove the pits. Cut the peaches into cubes, place in a blender or food processor fitted with the blade attachment, and process until puréed. Pour into a large pitcher.
- Add the cooled simple syrup, sparkling water, lemon juice, and vodka. Stir to combine. Add ice and stir again. Cut the remaining peach into thin slices. Stir a few of the slices into the lemonade and use the others to garnish the glasses.
