I just can’t believe that summer is almost over! The summertime produces in stores will soon get replaced with that of Fall. Pumpkins, apples, & figs would start popping up every nook and corner… Well, in a way that is the beauty of every season. Time flies fast and somehow I feel that I have not had enough of this summer yet, loving this weather so much.

So, before fall arrives let me share one of my favorite drinks which uses a summer fruit as its main ingredient… Peach! The end of August is perhaps the best season for Peaches, they are so ripe, juicy and the aroma makes you want to scream for peach inspired desserts and drinks. Well, then how about a margarita with peach? Yeeppp, that’s a winner!

I’ve always loved a classic margarita, but this peach version takes it to the next level. It’s fruity flavours along with a hint of lime is so refreshing and perfect to beat the summer heat. All you need to do for this recipe is to puree fresh peaches and mix with tequila and triple sec. That’s it & You’re done – in less than 10 minutes!

This drink has a slightly thick consistency quite similar to that of a frozen margarita, but if you want it to be perfectly smooth, then strain the peach juice after pureeing.

Cheers!!!!

Pepper Delight has entered its 10^th month of limelight, and I know that’s a long time for not having a cocktail recipe so far. I guess I was just prolonging it till I got the right ingredients and that’s when this bag of berries landed in my hands. Berries make a great combo with anything you try, and with a hint of lime you get that refreshing sweet tangy flavour. And there you go, a triple berry treat.

I still have plenty of berries left, so stay tuned for more recipes. Something special with a berries compote coming soon…!

Enjoy, Chill…!
