Canned Peaches

Store unopened cans in a cool, dark pantry. Once opened, transfer to a lidded container and refrigerate.

Drain the syrup or juice before using in recipes where you don't want added sweetness or liquid.

Rinse peaches under cold water if you want to remove excess syrup.

Use the drained syrup or juice in other recipes, like smoothies or cocktails.

Canned peaches are great in cobblers, crumbles, or simply served with yogurt or ice cream.

Not draining the peaches when a recipe calls for fresh or less sweet fruit.

Assuming the syrup is the same as fresh peach flavor; it's often much sweeter and may contain added preservatives.
