Why I Love This Recipe
This cocktail combines sweet and spicy elements, which is a flavor pairing adored in cuisines worldwide.
Ingredients You'll Need
2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
1 jalapeño pepper, sliced (seeds removed for less heat if desired)
2 tablespoons honey (adjust based on sweetness preference)
2 ounces tequila, silver or reposado
1 ounce lime juice (freshly squeezed)
1 cup soda water or sparkling water, chilled
Ice cubes, as needed
Peach and jalapeño slices for garnish (optional)
Directions
Begin by preparing a peach and jalapeño syrup: In a blender, blend the sliced peaches and 1/2 of the sliced jalapeño with the honey until smooth.
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove pulp if desired. This creates a flavorful base for the cocktail.
Fill a glass (highball or similar) with ice cubes.
In the glass, combine the peach-jalapeño syrup (about 1.5 oz per serving), tequila, and lime juice. Stir well.
Top with chilled soda water to taste, and gently stir to mix.
Garnish with a slice of peach and a ring of jalapeño for visual appeal.
Pairs Well With
