Wash the peaches thoroughly under cold running water. Ensure they are free of dirt or pesticides.
Using a paring knife, cut each peach in half and remove the pits. You do not need to peel the peaches, but you can if you prefer.
Slice the peaches into wedges, about 6-8 slices per peach.
Sterilize a large, sealable glass jar or bottle by washing it with warm soapy water and rinsing it thoroughly. Let it air-dry completely or dry it with a clean towel.
Place the peach slices into the jar, arranging them so they’re evenly distributed.
Pour the vodka over the peach slices, ensuring all the fruit is fully submerged. If desired, add the granulated sugar to slightly sweeten the infusion (this step is optional).
Seal the jar tightly and give it a gentle shake to distribute the sugar, if used.
Store the jar in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry or cabinet, for 5-7 days. Shake the jar gently once a day to help the flavors infuse evenly.
After 5-7 days, taste-test the vodka. If it has reached your desired level of peach flavor, strain the vodka through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean bottle. Discard the peach slices.
Seal the bottle and store it in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place. Enjoy your peach-infused vodka in cocktails, on the rocks, or however you like!
