Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, pitted and chopped

1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust based on the sweetness of peaches)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for added depth)

1/4 cup cool water

Instructions
 

Prepare the Peaches: Begin by thoroughly washing the peaches under cool running water. Once clean, slice each peach in half, carefully remove the pit, and chop them into smaller, manageable pieces for blending.

    Blend the Ingredients: In a high-speed blender or food processor, add the chopped peaches, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract (if desired), and water. Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Once blended, taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if you prefer it sweeter.

      Chill the Mixture: Pour the peach blend into a medium-sized bowl. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours, allowing the mixture to chill thoroughly.

        Freeze the Sorbet: After chilling, transfer the mixture to a shallow dish, such as a 9x9 inch baking pan. Spread it evenly and place it in the freezer. Let it freeze for approximately 4 to 6 hours or until it is solid and firm.

          Break Up the Sorbet: Once the sorbet is frozen, take a fork and scrape the surface of the sorbet to break up the ice crystals. Continue to fork it until you achieve a light and fluffy texture.

            Serve: Use a scoop or spoon to serve the sorbet into chilled bowls or glasses. For a touch of elegance, garnish with fresh peach slices or a sprig of mint, adding a refreshing visual element.

              Storage: If you have any leftovers, store the sorbet in an airtight container and keep it in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. When you're ready to serve it again, allow the sorbet to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften before scooping.
