There\u2019s no question that summertime<\/a> produce is some of the best! It\u2019s ripe and oh-so-juicy, making it perfect to muddle and mix in your cocktails. And one of my favorite\u00a0 fruits to add to summer cocktails is peaches! If you\u2019re ready for all the fun in the sun this year, don\u2019t forget to add making the Grilled Peach & Basil Smash to your activities list!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With summer officially here, fun events like barbecues and poolside<\/a> parties are on the horizon. This means lots of grilling and sipping–and this peach cocktail is the perfect drink to make for your friends and family. (I recommend you pair this treat with these scrumptious <\/span>S\u2019mores Pops<\/span><\/a> for a tasty treat to nibble on, too!) The Grilled Peach & Basil Smash also makes for a delicious bridal shower<\/a> beverage, especially if you’re throwing a backyard affair<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n\"\"\n

This cocktail’s packed with rich flavors of brown sugar and bold bourbon, balanced by juicy peaches, herbaceous basil, citrus juice, and topped with zesty ginger beer. The star of this drink is the grilled peaches which can be enjoyed in the cocktail, with some vanilla ice cream, or all on their own.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So how do you make this peach cocktail? Well, it’s pretty simple. Just muddle the grilled peach, lemon, and basil with some brown sugar in a cocktail glass. Then add the bourbon and ginger beer, fill with ice, and stir it up. Don\u2019t forget to garnish with more grilled peach slices! Note: <\/span>Even though the grilled peaches add a rich, smoky flavor to this drink, this cocktail would still be delicious if you skipped the grilling.<\/span><\/p>\n\"a\n

And if you have an event coming up that you think the Grilled Peach & Basil Smash would be perfect for, don\u2019t forget to pair it with a cute summer outfit. Peruse a selection of <\/span>feel-good <\/span>summer<\/span><\/a> styles,\u00a0check out some fun <\/span>makeup ideas<\/span><\/a>, then complete your look with one of the season’s top nail trends<\/a>. (I’m loving bright <\/span>rainbow nails<\/span><\/a> that you can totally DIY. ) With a fruity drink in hand and a leveled-up look, you’ll be summer-ready from head to toe!<\/span><\/p>\n

Bonus tip: You can try this cocktail recipe with other grilled fruit, too–like pineapples or apples–for a fun twist. Grill it all up and sip it down!
