Cooks' Note

Cook's Notes:

Head to the farmers' market for peak-season fruit. Freeze the fruit in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet until solid. Purée ingredients in a blender until smooth and very thick. Divide among glasses and serve.

Cold Facts:

The drier the ice, the better. Melting ice makes for a watery cocktail.

No need to upgrade your blender. The old one will do the trick just fine.

Texture Matters:

Frozen drinks should look too thick when poured into the glass. They will loosen immediately.

  • This is a very good drink for peach season. The only thing I didnt really like was it is very ginger heavy. I modified the recipe a little to counteract the strength of the ginger flavor by adding one more ounce of simple syrup, 2 more cups of peaches, and 1 more cup of ice to thicken it.
