Market Peach Smash Recipes

Steps:

• Bring the sugar, 1/2 cup water and ginger to a simmer in a small saucepan. Tear and add in 4 of the mint leaves. Once the sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes, turn of the heat. Strain and set aside to cool.
• Slice the peach into slices, reserving 2 for garnish. Add the peaches, the remaining mint, and the lime quarters to a cocktail shaker. Mash with a muddler until broken up and juicy. Add the bourbon and muddle again. Add 2 ounces of the simple syrup, fill the shaker with ice and shake.
• Strain into 2 cups filled with ice. Top off with ginger beer, garnish each with a peach slice, a lime slice and a sprig of mint.

Steps:

• In a mixing glass, muddle the peach with the tarragon syrup. Add gin and shake ingredients vigorously with ice. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and float a thin slice of peach on top.

Steps:

• Muddle 5 to 8 mint leaves, depending on size, with peach nectar in a cocktail shaker until leaves are broken down, about 1 minute.

• Lightly slap 2 sprigs of mint between your hands to release their scent, then garnish the drink with them.
