Sparkling Peach Lemonade

Lately I've been thinking about summer when I was a kid. How much fun we used to have, and how things seemed to change as the years went by. They went from never ending to being too short.

One of the things that reminds me of summer as a child is lemonade. I wanted to get the feeling of never ending summer back, at least for a little while and try to make it. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture for this one, but it's really easy to make.

    What you will need:

     3/4 cup lemon juice ( about 6 lemons)
     1 peach
      1 1/2 liters sparkling water
     1 1/2 cupa of sugar; or more if needed.

    What to do:

1. Sqeeze the lemon juice into a measuring cup and pour into a pitcher.

2. Cut a peach into in half and remove the pit. Then cut the 2 pieces in half again. Romove the middle and the skin. Cut the peach into small chunks.

3. Put the peaches into the pitcher and smash them with a spoon to release the flavor of the peach.

4. Pour the sparkling water into the pitcher. Then add the sugar and mix. Add more sugar if needed. Add some lemon slices to garnish.
