    What is Peach Lemonade?

    Peach lemonade is a twist on traditional lemonade. Sugar, water, and lemon juice...but with the addition of peach puree for a fresh and summery flavor.

    Fresh Peach Lemonade Q&A

    How long does peach lemonade last?

    This will keep in the fridge for 3-5 days.  Stir before serving.

    What is it called lemonade and not lemon juice?

    Lemonade originated in 1630 in Paris.  Lemonade is called “lemonade” and not “lemon juice” like “orange juice”; because it is a mixture of lemon juice, sugar and water, while orange juice is generally just the juice from an orange.

    Is lemonade hydrating?

    Sour drinks are linked to salivation which helps hydration. So yes, lemonade does help hydration.

    What Should I Serve Peach Lemonade With?

    In my opinion an ice cold drink like this one goes with almost anything - but I highly recommend serving it with our Rainbow Quinoa Salad or our summer asparagus salad. Summer food is my favorite - what are some of your favorite things to eat in the summer?  Tell me in the comments below.

        It adds a bit more tart flavor, and also acts as a preservative. You can omit it if you'd like.
