There's something about a peach that just makes everything better – including your favorite cocktails. After years of experimenting (tough job, we know), here are some of our favorite ways to add a touch of summer to your glass.
The Classic Peach Smash Simple, refreshing, and dangerously good. Muddle a ripe peach with mint leaves, add your favorite bourbon, a splash of simple syrup, and ice. Shake well. Summer in a glass.
The Peachy Keen Spritz Perfect for afternoon porch-sitting. Purée a ripe peach, add prosecco and a splash of aperitif. Top with a floating peach slice. Watch the sunset. Repeat.
The Front Porch Special Our take on sweet tea, all grown up. Mix freshly brewed tea, muddled peaches, your choice of spirit, and a hint of honey. Serve over ice with a sprig of mint.
Pro tip: Save those perfectly ripe peaches for eating fresh. Use the ones that are just a touch too soft for your cocktails – they're actually sweeter and perfect for muddling!
