These are easy to make with fresh or frozen fruit—or you can use canned fruit if needed—and are a perfect way to cool off, work as a hydration food, and are a yummy toddler snack on for a vitamin-rich treat.

How to Store

See each recipe for tips on storage, though generally you can store these recipes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or up to 6 months in the freezer.

Best Tips for Success

• Use fresh or frozen peaches in these recipes. You can purchase frozen sliced peaches at the store, or slice and freeze peaches yourself when you find them on sale or have some leftover that you don’t want to go to waste.
• The flavor of peaches can vary widely in terms of sweetness, so taste them and adjust any added sugar as needed.
• Try different varieties of peaches for different flavors, including white peaches, yellow peaches, and Colorado peaches, which are some of the most flavorful around.
