½ cup water (120ml)
¼ cup granulated (white) sugar (4 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons brown sugar

For the peach milkshake

½ cup milk (whole, half and half, 2% or plant based all work) (120ml)
3 cups vanilla ice cream (450g)

whipped cream
peach syrup

Instructions

To make the peach syrup

Chop the peaches into pieces and add to a small pan with the rest of the ingredients for the syrup.
Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar, once boiling turn the heat down to a simmer.
Keep on a very low simmer for around 25 to 30 minutes until the peaches are soft and mushy.
Place a fine mesh sieve over a bowl and pour the peach syrup into the sieve. Use a spoon to press the peaches through the sieve.
Place the bowl with the peach syrup in the fridge to cool before using and discard the skin and pulp in the sieve.

To make the milkshake

Roughly chop the peaches and place in a blender with the milk and brown sugar.
Blend til smooth.
Add in the ice cream and blend again til smooth and creamy.
Pour into glasses, top with whipped cream and drizzle over the peach syrup.

Notes

To make the milkshakes more of an orange peachy color, you can add in a pinch of turmeric powder to color it. Only use a pinch though so that it doesn't overpower the drink.
To make the milkshakes a stronger peach flavor, instead of drizzling the peach syrup on top, you can blend it in with the rest of the milkshake ingredients.
