Combine chopped peaches with ½ cup sugar and lemon juice in a bowl. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to release juices.
Mash or Purée
Mash the peaches or blend them to your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, purée completely. Set aside.
Make the Cream Base
In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining ¾ cup sugar, heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and salt until sugar dissolves.

Stir the peach mixture into the cream base. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until thoroughly chilled.

Pour chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer’s instructions, about 20–25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
Freeze to Firm Up
Transfer churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
