Ingredients
- 3 whole Fresh peaches
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 inch piece Fresh ginger
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups Sparkling water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 6 whole Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Peel and pit the peaches, then chop them into small chunks.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the chopped peaches, honey, freshly grated ginger (from the 1-inch piece), and water.
Step 3
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the peaches soften and the liquid thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Step 5
Using a blender, puree the peach-ginger mixture until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any solids.

In a large pitcher, combine the strained peach-ginger puree with fresh lemon juice and sparkling water. Stir gently to combine.
Step 7
Fill two glasses with ice cubes and pour the peach fuzz mixture over the ice.
