You know when you try something delicious, not expecting to like it quite as much as you find yourself liking it? This happened to me at the Taste of Calgary a few weeks ago. A friend and I stopped by the Summer Love Vodka tent in the beer gardens and used some of our tickets on their peach vodka drink. I wish I could remember what was in it, but I know it had at least two things; peach vodka and sparkling water. Whatever else was in it, it was SOOO good!
I left the event that night and the next day bought 2 bottles of that peach vodka. SO GOOD. I’m not even usually a vodka drinker! But there’s is AWESOME. More than a pound of peaches go into their peach vodka. No sugar added, no weirdness. PS – this post is not sponsored, I’m just honestly that excited!
Anyway, I couldn’t remember what was in the drink that I had, so I created something that was equally delicious. I tried a few different versions with my hubby as the happy taste tester (perils of working from home) until we/I felt satisfied!
What do you put in a peach vodka cocktail?
Well, obviously, peach vodka 😉 If you don’t have access to the stellar Summer Love vodka, you can also find one from Absolut or Smirnoff. Other than that, you’ll need some lime soda water (I love Bubly
My recipe makes 2 drinks. It can easily be made for 1, or for more! Or just, 4 for 1. No judgement.
The order that you mix the ingredients isn’t overly important, but you’ll get a really pretty effect if you put the grenadine in last. And everything tastes better when it’s pretty, right?
Today my oldest, Oscar, starts kindergarten. I can’t believe it! It makes me sad to think this is the start of his entire school career. Today! I’ve been fortunate enough to enjoy a lot of his last 5 years, but he will no longer be with me EVERY day, ALL day. It’s a weird sensation.
Someone pass me a drink!
