Method
 

Ice Cream Preparation
  1. Start by peeling, pitting, and slicing about four ripe Georgia peaches; toss with 1/4 cup of sugar and lemon juice. Let rest for 15 minutes.
  2. Transfer the peach mixture to a blender and blend until mostly smooth with a few chunks remaining for texture.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup of whole milk, and 3/4 cup of sugar until the sugar dissolves. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold the peach puree into the cream mixture using a spatula. Don't overmix to preserve swirls of peach.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, smooth the top, and cover. Freeze for at least 1 hour.
  6. After 1 hour, stir the mixture with a whisk or fork, then return to the freezer, repeating every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours.
  7. Once fully set, scoop into bowls and garnish with extra peach slices.
