With: Muddled maraschino cherry and orange wedge, bourbon, Peachtree peach schnapps liqueur and orange bitters. So after a few minutes of brainstorming, my mind settled on floats! They require very few ingredients and they’re SUPER easy to make! Perfection! For the best color: use peaches with the reddest skin you can find and leave the skin on while making the syrup. Peach schnapps is a liqueur – a liquor that has added seasoning and flavors. A liquor, which just sounds like a less-fancy way of saying liqueur, is a distilled drink such as gin or vodka. Garnish your glass with some peach slices (optional but recommend) and you’ve got a super refreshing, super easy dessert drink to keep you cool this summer! I can’t believe I didn’t think of this sooner, but now that I know how easy it is to make an ice cream float, I’m definitely gonna be making these for the rest of the season.

Peach and apricot sit brilliantly with the sparkling wine, think Bellini with a hint of apricot.Peach soda is a non-alcoholic beverage composed primarily of carbonated water, peach juice or peach flavorings, and sugar. Artificial orange color is also usually added. Peach soda originated in the United States in the early part of the 20th century. Its popularity remained strong through 1970s. 3. Is it Nehi peach or peach Nehi? To make this simple summer drink, start by adding a few scoops of ice cream to a tall glass. I used vanilla ice cream since that seems to be the most popular flavour to use in a float, but you can substitute for peach ice cream instead for more peach flavour! Adjust the flavor to taste:by adjusting the ratio of citrus to syrup, you can decide how sweet or tart it is, and which flavors are strongest. Then, in a large pitcher, combine the lemon juice, peach mixture (there should be around 1 cup), and 3 cups of water/sparkling water, and stir. Peach schnapps is made of distilled peaches and rectified grain spirit, as well as a significant amount of sugar and glycerin to give it that distinctive syrup texture. It is the perfect flavor for making a drink feel like summer – refreshing and fruity, and sometimes with a retro twist.

I highly recommend zesting the lemons first, so you can save it for other uses or even use some lemon peel twirls as a garnish for peach drinks and other drinks and desserts. Sweet and peach-flavored, this liqueur is incredibly versatile and is easy to mix with other drinks to create a yummy concoction! This recipe is super easy to make and tastes almost too good to be true, so remember to not overdo it regardless of how little alcohol you will taste.We Say: This Tiki classic looks a little like frozen stagnant pond water but tastes minty fresh and rather good. We says: Gin with a sweetening touch of peach, orange and pomegranate. A recipe from Victor Bergeron's 1972 Trader Vic's Bartender's Guide.

Another option is Jones Peach, a slightly sweeter soda made with natural flavors and no artificial sweeteners. It has a bold, fruity peach taste and a satisfying level of bubbles. You will need a food processor for this one! Blend all of the ingredients (liquids and peach slices, everything) in a food processor until it is smooth. Berries: substitute some peaches for berries for different flavor combinations like raspberry peach lemonade or strawberry peach lemonade, etc. Adjust the flavor to taste: by adjusting the ratio of citrus to syrup, you can decide how sweet or tart you prefer, and which flavors are strongest. Spices: vanilla and ginger both pair well with the drink and can be added to the syrup while it infuses.Then add the ice cubes and blend until it is smooth again. The name for this mixed drink is a bit odd, considering it doesn’t actually taste very festive, but it’s a lovely blended mix of sweetness that is refreshing and tasty. Kiss on the lips Another mixed drink that requires a food processor, simply blend the peach schnapps, frozen mango mix and crushed ice until smooth. Swap the liquid:dilute the peach and lemon with water, sparkling water, soda, or even coconut water. Experiment to find your desired version.

Peach simple syrup: This homemade peach syrup requires just 3 ingredients (peaches, a sweetener, and water) and is ready in 15 minutes (not including 30-min cooling time), with minimal prep and effort. Perfect for when you fancy a nice mixed peach schnapps drink without having to buy a load of other alcohols or mixers! Caribbean Moor Lemon juice: Meyer lemons are wonderful for their sweeter flavor. However, any lemon will work. Lime juice will also work. I gotta say, this Peaches and Cream Floats recipe is definitely the easiest recipe I’ve shared on this blog. It only requires 3 ingredients: Ice Cream + Peach Soda + Club Soda. The club soda is even optional so you technically only need 2 ingredients!

Discussion Comments

I recently bought a few tubs of vanilla ice cream for an incredible recipe I’ll be sharing in the future. When I finished making that recipe, I noticed I had quite a bit of vanilla ice cream left. As a food blogger, when I have leftover ingredients, instead of just eating it I always try to think of another recipe I can make with it. Use the best peaches available:ripe, in-season peaches are best. Out of the main peach season, you may still find several delicious varieties OR turn to frozen peaches.
