Ginger-Peach Smash

This is a request for breads from my mother for my sister and mother-in-law. The recipe my family likes only needs a few minor adjustments.

Prep Time: 5 mins
Total Time: 5 mins
Servings: 1
Yield: 1 cocktail

Ingredients

  1. 4 sprigs fresh mint, divided, or as needed
  2. ¾ fluid ounce peach nectar
  3. 1 ½ fluid ounces bourbon
  4. ¾ fluid ounce ginger liqueur (such as Domaine de Canton®)
  5. ice as needed

Instructions

  1. Muddle 5 to 8 mint leaves, depending on size, with peach nectar in a cocktail shaker until leaves are broken down, about 1 minute.
  2. Pour in bourbon and ginger liqueur and fill the shaker with ice. Close and shake until well chilled. Strain into a rocks glass with a large whiskey ice cube.
  3. Lightly slap 2 sprigs of mint between your hands to release their scent, then garnish the drink with them.
  4. You can use regular ice cubes if you don’t have the special tray. Use a wooden spoon if you don’t have a muddler.
