Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: Non-Alcoholic
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup peach puree
- 2 cups ginger beer
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Start by preparing the peach puree. If you are using fresh peaches, wash them thoroughly, remove the pits, and chop them into smaller pieces. Blend the chopped peaches in a blender until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, pulse the blender a few times instead of blending continuously.
- Measure out 1 cup of the peach puree and set it aside. If you have any leftover puree, it can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of days or frozen for later use.
- In a large mixing glass or pitcher, combine the peach puree with 1 tablespoon of lime juice. The lime juice will add a refreshing tang and balance the sweetness of the peaches.
- Next, slowly pour in 2 cups of ginger beer into the mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients without losing the carbonation from the ginger beer.
- Once everything is mixed, taste the mocktail. You can adjust the sweetness or tartness by adding more lime juice or peach puree as desired.
- To serve, fill two glasses with ice cubes. Pour the peach and ginger beer mixture over the ice, filling each glass to the top.
- Garnish each glass with a few fresh mint leaves. You can gently slap the mint leaves between your hands before adding them to release more of their aromatic oils.
- Enjoy your refreshing Peachy Ginger Beer Mocktail immediately while it’s chilled and fizzy!
Tips
- Peach Perfection: For the most intense flavor, use ripe, in-season peaches. If fresh peaches aren't available, high-quality frozen peaches work wonderfully.
- Puree Precision: When blending peaches, strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve if you prefer an ultra-smooth texture.
- Chill Factor: Ensure all ingredients are cold before mixing to maintain maximum carbonation and refreshment.
- Mint Magic: To enhance the mint's flavor, gently muddle or clap the leaves between your palms before garnishing to release essential oils.
- Customize Your Mocktail: Experiment with different ginger beer brands—some are spicier, some sweeter—to find your perfect match.
- Make-Ahead Hack: Prepare the peach puree in advance and store it in the refrigerator for quick assembly when craving strikes.
