Zesty and Fresh: Orange Peach Basil Lemonade Recipe

Orange Peach Basil Lemonade

I’m excited to share this refreshing Homemade Beverage recipe with you today. As we transition from hot summer days to cooler autumn evenings, I find comfort in the sweet and tangy flavors of this Orange Peach Basil Lemonade. The combination of citrusy oranges, juicy peaches, and fragrant basil creates a unique and invigorating drink that is perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

• 2 large oranges, juiced
• 2 ripe peaches, peeled and diced
• 10 fresh basil leaves
• 1 lemon, juiced
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 4 cups cold water

Kitchen Tools:

• citrus juicer
• blender
• strainer
• pitcher

To start, juice the oranges and lemon using a citrus juicer. In a blender, combine the freshly squeezed orange juice, diced peaches, basil leaves, lemon juice, honey, and cold water. Blend until smooth and well combined.

Next, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher to remove any pulp or seeds. Press down on the solids to extract all the flavorful liquid. Discard the solids and refrigerate the strained lemonade for at least an hour to chill and allow the flavors to meld.

Once chilled, stir the lemonade well before serving over ice. This Orange Peach Basil Lemonade is the perfect balance of sweet and tart, with a hint of herbal freshness from the basil. Each sip is a burst of sunshine and happiness.

The approximate total weight of the cooked dish is 1200 grams, with 4 servings at 300 grams each. One serving of this Orange Peach Basil Lemonade is approximately 120 calories.

A clever tip to elevate this drink is to garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh basil or a slice of orange for a beautiful presentation. It adds an extra pop of color and freshness to your drink, making it even more enjoyable.

I encourage you to try this unique Orange Peach Basil Lemonade recipe and tailor it to your taste preferences. Feel free to adjust the sweetness with more honey or add a splash of sparkling water for some fizz. Cheers to making memorable moments with delicious homemade beverages!
