Peach season is here and we couldn't wait to whip up this refreshing cocktail with just four easy ingredients.
We recommend making your syrup at home if possible using fresh, muddled ripe peaches. Throw in your choice of bourbon and lemon juice, and top it off with a healthy dose of ginger beer.
The Bourbon Peach Smash is a summer staple best served ice-cold in your Elevated Craft Hybrid Cocktail Glass. Enjoy it at your next backyard BBQ with peach slices and basil or mint on the rim.
Pro tip: Try charring your peaches on the grill first to enhance their flavor and add a satisfying smoky aroma to your garnish game.
Make peach simple syrup by combining 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar. Bring to a simmer and add 1.5-2 peaches, sliced into chunks. Leave the skin on for a more vibrant colored syrup. Let simmer for about 10 minutes, then remove from heat and strain into an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to one week.
Cocktail Preparation
Combine syrup, bourbon and lemon juice in your Hybrid Cocktail Shaker. Shake for 15 seconds and pour over ice into your Hybrid Cocktail Glass. Top with ginger beer. Depending on your preferences, you can use a spicy ginger beer or a more subtle, sweeter variety.
