Give Peach a Chance

The thought of adding peach to a classic tequila recipe might make cocktail snobs’ heads explode, but we don’t care. The Proof Peach Margarita is delicious.

Our recipe is a far cry from the cloyingly sweet, way-too-peachy versions you can pick up at grocery and liquor stores, but if you ask us, it works. A touch of citrus, the floral sweetness of peaches, and lightly smoky, vegetal tequila: how could this cocktail not be delicious?

Proof Peach Margarita
2 oz Tequila
½ oz Citrus Sour Proof Syrup
¾ oz White Peach Proof Syrup
Lime Wedge

Shake all ingredients with ice. Strain into ice-filled rocks glass. Garnish with lime wedge.

Variation: If you like your tequila cocktails extra citrus-y, add ¼ oz to ½ oz lime juice. If you’re all about the peach, dial it up to a full ounce (or more) and garnish with a peach slice.
