Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, peeled and diced

1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Pinch of salt

1 cup cold water

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Begin by peeling and dicing the ripe peaches. For easy peeling, blanch the peaches in boiling water for about 30 seconds. Immediately transfer them to an ice bath to cool quickly, then the skins should slip off effortlessly.

    Blend Ingredients: In a blender or food processor, add the diced peaches, granulated sugar, fresh lemon juice, vanilla extract (if using), salt, and cold water. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and well integrated.

      Taste and Adjust: After blending, taste your peach mixture. If you desire a sweeter sorbet, gradually add more sugar, one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until the desired sweetness is achieved.

        Chill the Mixture: Pour the peach blend into a mixing bowl and place it in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Chilling not only enhances the flavors but also helps the sorbet freeze better.

          Freeze the Sorbet: Once chilled, transfer the mixture into your ice cream maker. Churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the sorbet develops a soft-serve consistency, which typically takes about 20 to 25 minutes.

            Transfer and Harden: Using a spatula, transfer the churned sorbet into an airtight container, smoothing the surface for a streamlined finish. Place it in the freezer for an additional 2 to 3 hours, or until it's firm enough to scoop.

              Serve: To serve, scoop the fresh sorbet into chilled bowls. For an elegant presentation, consider garnishing with fresh mint leaves or a thin slice of peach on top.
