Method
- Slice the peaches into smaller pieces to make blending easier.

- Stop the blender and check the texture. If it’s too thick, add a splash of water or extra lemon juice, then blend briefly to incorporate.
- Pour the peach slushie into glasses, allowing some of the ice crystals to settle at the top for visual appeal.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a garnish of fresh peach slices to enjoy a cool, refreshing treat.
