Peaches Cocktail

The Floridian Peaches and Cream
Serves 1

  • 2 ounces house-made Florida peach vodka (recipe below)
  • House-made cream soda, to taste (recipe below)
  • Florida peach pinwheel, for garnish
  1. Fill Collins glass halfway with ice cubes. Add vodka, then cream soda. Garnish with peach.

House-Made Florida Peach Vodka

  • 1 Liter Ciroc vodka
  • 8 fresh Florida peaches, washed and left whole
  1. Combine vodka and peaches in glass container that can be sealed. Place in dark, cool place for 3 to 5 days, shaking daily. (The longer it sits, the more peach flavor will develop.)
  2. To use, strain liquid and refrigerate. For extra flavor, juice peaches, strain and add to vodka.

House-made Cream Soda
For this recipe you will need a soda charger and soda gas canisters. You can substitute canned cream soda, which will produce the same taste but not the froth.

  • 1 quart cold water for charger
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup cooled vanilla syrup (recipe follows)
  1. Add all ingredients to a soda charger and add two gas capsules to carbonate liquid. Keep cold.

Vanilla syrup

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 vanilla beans, split and scraped
  1. Combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Cool.
