Stew the peaches. Add the chopped peaches and bring to a simmer. Simmer the peaches for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally and mashing with the back of a wooden spoon to release their juices as they cook down. 🍑🍵

Cool. After 10 minutes, remove the pan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature, then strain the mixture through a mesh strainer into a mixing glass. ❄️🕒

Mix and serve. In a large pitcher, combine the cooled peach honey syrup, lemon juice, and remaining water (4 cups to make 8 drinks). Stir gently to combine. Serve with sliced peaches and lemon wheels over ice-filled glasses.
