spicy peach cocktail with vodka

Learn how to make a spicy peach cocktail! Use vodka or gin in the peach cocktail recipe for a refreshing summer drink.

Oh sweet peaches am I excited to share this new drink with you! This refreshing peach and vodka cocktail is inspired by my hot pepper peach honey. It combines fresh fruit flavors with the heat of chili peppers - a perfect beverage for sunny days on the back porch (or summoning the sunshine on icky weather days). If you don't have everything for the infused honey you can substitute regular honey.

This cocktail features a new favorite drink of mine - agua fresca! The Mexican drink agua fresca (“fresh water” or “cool water”) is made with water and fruit. Agua fresca is so easy to make and oh so delicious! It's simply fruit, sugar and water blended together. If you don't have a blender/don't have access to agua fresca, you can pick up some mango nectar or juice from the store as a substitute.

ingredients:

• hot pepper peach honey - click for the recipe, you can also substitute for regular honey
