Notes
Lemon juice: Use the juice from fresh lemons. Bottled concentrate can work, but it is stronger tasting and more sour than fresh juice, and it can overpower the softness of the peaches. Juicing the lemons is seriously worth the effort.
Peaches: You can use fresh or frozen peaches. In the summer, try to use fresh for a stronger peach flavor!
