Ingredients
 

  • 2 oz peach liqueur

  • Ice cubes
  • Peach slice or mint sprig - for garnish, optional

Equipment

  • Highball Glass
  • Measuring Jigger
  • Stirrer or Bar Spoon

Instructions

  • Prep Glass: Fill your Highball glass with ice cubes.
  • Add Peach Liqueur: Pour 2 oz peach liqueur over the ice.

  • Stir Gently: Use a bar spoon to stir the ingredients gently.
  • Garnish: Place a peach slice or mint sprig into the glass for garnish.

Notes

Substitutes:

  • Peach Liqueur: If you don't have peach liqueur, you can use Apple liqueur for a different fruity flavor.  I've also tried using apricot brandy, which adds a slightly different but delightful twist.
  • Soda Water or Ginger Ale: You can substitute soda water with tonic water for a more bitter edge. If you prefer something sweeter, try lemon-lime soda instead of ginger ale.

Making it Non-Alcoholic:

  • Peach Liqueur Substitute: Use a non-alcoholic peach syrup; these are available and do a good job mimicking the sweet peach flavor.
  • Proceed As Usual: Use this non-alcoholic substitute instead of the regular peach liqueur, follow the original steps, and enjoy a non-alcoholic version.

Making it Vegan:

  • Check Ingredients: Ensure that your peach liqueur, soda water, or ginger ale are vegan-friendly. Most are, but it's always good to check labels.
  • Proceed As Usual: Follow the original steps using vegan-friendly ingredients to enjoy a vegan Peach Highball.
