A Peachy Wrap-Up
Peachy Slush
Cook's Notes: My apologies for the incorrect link posted yesterday for Peachy Slush. It has been corrected and the recipe follows below. It's a great refreshing summertime drink to have on hand. It keeps well in the freezer in a covered plastic container. The recipe needs to be made two days in advance before serving to freeze the alcohol. I added the peach puree to enhance the flavor.
INGREDIENTS:- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 cups water
- 12 oz. can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
- 12 oz can. frozen lemonade concentrate. thawed
- 3 cups water
- 2-1/2 cups peach flavored schnapps
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 3 sliced peaches=pureed in a blender
- Diet 7-Up
DIRECTIONS:
- In a medium saucepan boil sugar and 2 cups of water for 3 minutes.
- In a large plastic container combine boiled sugar mixture, 2 concentrates, 3 cups of water, peach schnapps and lemon juice. Stir in peach puree and blend well. Cover and freeze. Before serving let container stand at room, temperature 15 minutes.
- To serve scoop out slushy mixture into a glass and fill with some Diet 7-UP.
Peach Margarita
Cook's notes:This fresh peach margarita recipe is sweet, simple to make, and so satisfying!Recipe makes 1 serving but with 2 large peaches I was able to make 3 drinks.
Recipe comes from gimmesomeoven.com and a perfect drink for a hot summer day.
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup fresh peach puree (*see instructions below*)
- 2 oz. silver tequila
- 1.5 oz lime juice
- 1 oz. Triple Sec
- 1 oz. orange juice
- 1 TB. agave or honey
- optional garish: rim salt and fresh peach slice
Directions:
- Add all ingredients together in a shaker. Shake for 15 seconds until combined. Serve over ice in a glass that has been rimmed with salt and garnished with a fresh peach slice.
- *To make fresh peach puree, simply peel and pit a fresh peach and puree it in a blender until smooth. 1 medium peach = approximately 1/2 cup puree (but measure to be sure).
Oh, and don't forget to add a paper umbrella.
