  1. Puree can of peaches with syrup or the peach pie filling. I used my Nutribullet blender. You’ll want about 2 1/2 cups of pureed peaches.

  3. Pour into popsicle molds, insert sticks and freeze until solid.

Equipment

Notes

To make mint simple syrup combine equal parts sugar and water and bring to a boil.  Remove from heat and let a handful of fresh mint leaves steep.  Strain and store simple syrup in refrigerator.  See this flavored simple syrup post for more detailed instructions.

I have used both canned peaches and peach pie filling.  Both are good, you will have a little bit more puree with the larger can of peaches in heavy syrup.
