Remove from heat and let cool. Strain syrup through a fine mesh sieve, pressing to extract liquid. Discard solids or save for another use.
  2. Make Lemonade: In a pitcher, combine peach syrup, fresh lemon juice, and cold water or sparkling water. Stir to mix well. Taste and adjust sweetness with more sugar if needed.
  3. Add ice to glasses or pitcher. Pour lemonade over ice.
