Description

A refreshing summer cocktail for those summer Friday happy hours.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup peach juice
  • 2 shots tequila
  • 2 shots crème de pêche
  • 1 shot lime juice
  • 1 tbsp basil simple syrup
  • Peach slices and basil leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Simple syrup is very easy to make: 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup torn basil, 1 sprig of thyme. Bring to a boil and let the sugar dissolve so it’s clear. Remove from heat and let sit for 30 minutes. Then cool completely.
  2. Fill a shaker with ice.
  3. Add peach juice, tequila, crème de pêche, lime juice, and simple syrup to the shaker.
  4. Cover and shake until the outside is frosted.
  5. Pour into ice-filled glasses.
  6. Garnish with peach slices and basil leaves.

Notes

Make the simple syrup ahead of time and store in a sealed container in the fridge.
