Begin by preparing the peaches. Peel and pit them, then chop them finely to measure 4 cups worth.
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the chopped peaches, crushed pineapple, the zest and juice of 2 oranges, lemon juice, and water.
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Once the fruit mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes, allowing the fruits to soften.
Gradually add the granulated sugar while continuously stirring until it has fully dissolved.
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture back to a gentle boil. Continue boiling and stirring regularly until the marmalade thickens, about 25-30 minutes. To test for doneness, place a small spoonful on a chilled plate; it should wrinkle slightly when pushed with your finger.
Once the marmalade is ready, carefully ladle it into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4-inch of headspace at the top.
Seal the jars with lids and process them in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure proper preservation.
Allow the jars to cool on a towel-lined countertop. You'll hear the lids pop as they seal. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 1 year. Refrigerate after opening.
