Hey, Reader!
I'll let you in on a little secret: grocery shopping is not my favorite thing. I'd much rather have it delivered to my door.
The exception is when I need seasonal produce. I'm willing to brave the store for the chance to choose the most perfect fruits, and right now there is plenty ripe for the taking.
Stone fruits, AKA fruits that have pits, are especially great right now. It may seem a little daunting to incorporate them into your drinks, but there are plenty of ways to avoid the hard pit and infuse their sweetness.
From simple syrups to slices to smashed, these beauties add both color and flavor to your summer sips:
cherry mojito
Fresh cherries and fresh mint combine for some great flavor in this mojito. Adding in fresh lime juice, simple syrup and some white rum, this twist on the classic is a must make!
This peach vodka cocktail is bright, fizzy, and bursting with fresh peach flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, this cocktail comes together in minutes and it’s the perfect sip for a hot summer day when you want something refreshing but not overly sweet.
Bursting with the sweet, juicy flavor of ripe peaches, this peach margarita is a summery drink that perfectly balances the brightness of fresh lime juice and sweetness of blanco tequila with muddled fresh peaches. It’s a delicious way to celebrate summer, making every sip taste orchard-fresh.
A honey mango lemonade is a tropical treat made for hot summer days! Take advantage of ripe mangos while they're in season to sweeten tart lemons and transform a traditional lemonade.
When you're at the store, give fruits like peaches, nectarines and plums a gentle squeeze. You'll want them to have a bit of give and a consistent coloring around the fruit with no green for the best taste.
