I use a honey & water mixture instead of sugar. I dump in about 1-2 cups of honey to 1-2 gallons of water. The taste is up to you! You can also use a sugar syrup mixture. You can find those directions here: Ball Canning

Next Step: BLANCH PEACHES IN BOILING WATER FOR 30-60 seconds
Next Step: ICE BATH THE PEACHES

Canning peaches always reminds me of the end of summer. Alisa will recall the year a friend and I canned over 100 jars. Was an all day event, kids played in the yard, and the kitchen did survive the mess. We were exausted but this is a fond memory I will always cherish. I think this is where Alisa was paying attention and has developed a love of canning as well.
