Peachtree Punch (2.0)

Here is a 1970’s era cocktail that is the signature cocktail at the Atlanta Trader Vic’s.
The recipe I used is an updated version by Martin Cate of Smugglers Cove. He took the template and replaced canned peaches with fresh, peach schnapps with Crème de Pêche, house made coconut cream instead of store bought and added fresh lemon juice.
Also it’s flash blended rather than blended into a slushie.
This is my first time trying this and it’s a banger! It’s like a boozy peach coconut creamsicle. Not too sweet thanks to the added lemon juice for balance. I wished I could’ve used Palisade Peaches but I missed my window and now they are out of season. I opted for the next best thing and used frozen organic peaches. I highly recommend making this one! - Steve Cervantes
