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!

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!

Best Way to Freeze Peaches

  1. Cut a small, shallow ‘x’ in the skin of the peach. Blanch the peaches in boiling water for about 30 seconds. Immediately place them into ice water.

  2. Peel the skin off of the peaches, remove the pits and slice them.

  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the slices in a single layer on it. 

  4. Place the baking sheet in the freezer and flash freeze them for a couple hours. 

  5. Store the peaches in an airtight sealed freezer bag.

I love the rich smoky flavor it has and how it’s not only great for cocktails, but cooking and baking as well. It also turns out that peaches and bourbon are a phenomenal combination together.

      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. ;-)

      Thanks Karen! When I lived in Arizona I always looked forward to the Utah peaches, but now that I’m a Colorado girl I can’t get enough of our local peaches!
