This peach margarita recipe will brighten any day with each sweet, summery sip. Just close your eyes and pretend you are on a warm beach, sipping margaritas with sand between your toes, listening to the soft crashing of waves. Although store-bought peaches might not be as good as fresh ones from your local farmer’s market, they’ll do the trick to bring a little brightness to your day. You can use fresh or frozen peaches to make the peach puree, blending until smooth. Combining citrus juices in this cocktail helps to round out the peaches’ sweetness with a bit of tartness. Fresh peach puree makes the margaritas light, fruity, and refreshing. We used fresh squeezed Orange and lime juice and added orange liqueur to enhance the flavor, and the effort was worthwhile. Feel free to use whatever citrus juices you have on hand! Simple syrup can be added as an optional ingredient to enhance the sweetness.
How to make a peach margarita
This drink is so easy to mix; we didn’t add steps! It depends on the time of year on exactly how you’ll make this drink. If it’s peach season, by all means, please go to your local outdoor farmer’s market and grab a few peaches. Eat one on the way home! If the peach season is all over and you managed to can some, that would be delightful! Otherwise, thaw out some frozen peaches, make some honey syrup, grab a cocktail shaker, and fill it with some ice. Peach puree is a key ingredient in the preparation. Add silver tequila, honey syrup, fresh lime juice, orange juice, and optionally peach schnapps to enhance the peach flavor, shake and serve over those thawing peaches! This delicious peach margarita recipe takes minutes.
