Bourbon Peach Slush

August 31, 2015 by Danae 34 Comments

A Bourbon Peach Slush is the perfect frozen summer cocktail! Bourbon and peaches are blended together to make a fun, easy and delicious boozy slush!

Bourbon Peach Slush | Bourbon, peaches, and ginger ale are blended together to make a delicious and easy to make cocktail!Peach season won’t be around much longer and it makes me sad because I just love my Colorado peaches so darn much! I haven’t had a bad one all summer. They’ve all been sweet, juicy, and peachy perfection.

To make sure I can still have my peaches during the snowy months I’ve been freezing them. Yes, I’m that weirdo that still enjoys cold frozen things when it’s snowing outside. Of course frozen is never as good as fresh, but there are still lots of things to make with frozen peaches, like this Bourbon Peach Slush!

Bourbon Peach Slush | Bourbon, peaches, and ginger ale are blended together to make a delicious and easy to make cocktail!I have always been a fan of peaches, but it wasn’t until the last year or so that I discovered how much I enjoy bourbon as well. I love the rich smoky flavor it has, it’s beautiful amber color and that not only is it great for cocktails like this slush, but cooking and baking as well.

Bourbon Peach Slush | Bourbon, peaches, and ginger ale are blended together to make a delicious and easy to make cocktail!While the summer peach season is still hanging on I knew I wanted to make a fun cocktail that combined those juicy peaches with bourbon. In case you weren’t aware, peaches and bourbon are a phenomenal combination together.

This cocktail if a frozen slushy type which not only makes it fun to drink, but refreshing as well if you’re still experiencing some warm afternoons.

Bourbon Peach Slush | Bourbon, peaches, and ginger ale are blended together to make a delicious and easy to make cocktail!Making the Bourbon Peach Slush is not only simple, but uses just five ingredients. Frozen peaches, bourbon, ginger beer (or ginger ale), lime juice, and a little sugar are all you need to whip up this dangerously delicious frozen cocktail.

Simply add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. It literally takes less than 5 minutes.  The flavor is a perfect balance of bourbon and peaches, so if you like those two things then you will like the drink!

These slushes would be perfect for serving during a football party, a fun weekend with your girlfriends, or in my case my weekly Sunday 5 o’clock happy hour! Get those juicy peaches in the freezer so you can whip up one of these fantastic slushes whenever the mood hits you!

    These look amazing Danae! Beautiful work. I feel like every state loves their own peaches. I've heard people talk recently about Utah peaches, California peaches, colorado peaches. Hopefully someday I will try them all :)

      Hi April. Peeling the peaches is up to you. I didn't bother with it because they basically disappeared when everything was blended together, I'm also a little lazy when it comes to that. ;-)

    I had some ginger ale I was looking to use and found this on Pinterest. So glad I was sick earlier this week! I ended up adding raspberries as I didn't have enough peaches and it gave it a nice tang. Thanks for my new summer drink! http://www.onemissingingredient.com/raspberry-peach-ginger-bourbon-slushy/
