Lime Gin Cocktail with Peach and Ginger liqueur

lime-gin-cocktail-1Can you believe it’s August already? Yikes! Luckily this hot and humid month brings boatloads of peaches, which I have been thoroughly enjoying. I’ve been adding them to tacos, salsas, desserts and of course, cocktails. They’re kind of perfect for cocktails, especially right now when they’re perfectly ripe—sweetly scented and tender to the touch. With this little number, I paired the peach with a little ginger liqueur, which enhances the sweet summery flavor of the peach. It actually makes me thankful for August.

Cheers! To peaches, looking on the bright side and the weekend!
