Notes
- Peaches: If you don't have frozen peaches, you can peel and slice a ripe peach. Freeze for at least 2 hours before using.
- Lime juice: I recommend fresh lime juice for the best flavor.
- Simple syrup: This recipe makes 1 cup of simple syrup. It can be cut in half to have less leftover. Leftover simple syrup can be refrigerated for up to a week.
- In case you're wondering: this recipe works with all kinds of frozen fruit! Swap the peaches for an equal amount of frozen mango, frozen strawberries, kiwi, etc.
