Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and salt. Toss to mix and let it sit for 20-30 minutes until juicy.
Transfer half of the peaches along with their juices to a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Blend the cooked peaches lightly until mostly smooth with some texture.
Keep the remaining fresh peaches refrigerated for later incorporation.

Notes

For a sweeter ice cream, adjust the sugar to taste based on the peach sweetness.
You can add the bourbon for a richer flavor, but it’s optional if you prefer a non-alcoholic version.
Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
