Prep 20 min · Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
- 3 fresh peaches, pits discarded, flesh roughly chopped
- 1 cup fresh juice from 10 to 12 lemons
- 3/4 cup sugar
- Pinch salt
- 1 bunch thyme
- 3 cups cold water
- 1 quart ice
- Peach slices and thyme leaves for garnish
Directions
Put the peaches, lemon juice, sugar, and salt into your blender, then run it on high until the mixture is completely smooth, about 1 minute. While that goes, set the thyme in the bottom of a pitcher and give it a gentle press with a wooden spoon. Pour the peach mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into the pitcher, and toss the solids left behind. Whisk in the cold water, then add the ice. Pour into glasses filled with ice, finishing each one with peach slices and thyme leaves.
