Pardon my peach

When I spotted a cocktail recipe with cognac and peach on a good friends’ Instagram, I just knew that I had to make a simple drink in that same direction. But balancing the flavours, I ended up using Rye Whiskey as a base instead of Cognac. A switch which is often suggested in spirit-forward drinks such as e.g. the Sazerac. To stay true to the vision and mission of my blog, I drastically cut down on ingredients, the result was a pretty nice drink packed with flavour.

Frozen Peach & Orange Margarita (Low Alcohol)

 

Most of the cocktails on this blog have a “healthy dose” of alcohol. Some days I’m in the mood for a tasty aperitif, but I don’t want too much alcohol. That should always be an option.

Today I’m sharing a very tasty low alcohol Margarita. I know it doesn’t look very sexy on photo, but it’s delicious !!! It looks like a smoothie, perfect disguise 😉 

It still has the Tequila and lime juice, but the Cointreau is swapped for orange juice.

Frozen Peach & Orange Margarita (Low Alcohol)

Ingredients
3 cl Tequila Silver
1 cup Frozen peaches
0,75 cup Orange juice
0,5 cup ice cubes
Juice of ½ lime
1 tsp honey

(1 Cup = 236,58 ml or 128 gram)

Method
Put everything in a blender. Blend until silky and smooth. Serve in Margarita glasses. No garnish needed. You could do a salt rim on the glass if you like.
