Lemon Peach Sparkler – Mocktai
Peaches (ripe, soft
and sweet; frozen peaches are suitable as well)
Lemons
Simple syrup (optional to make this a bit sweeter)
TOST from GEM Life and Bar
To make the peach juice, first add the chopped peaches and fresh lemon juice to a blender and blend until smooth. Strain the peach and lemon mixture in a fine mesh strainer to remove any bits of skin that the blender could not liquify. After straining, this should yield approximately 2 cups of purée (approximately 2 liters of beverage unless the concentration is changed).
To make a 1-liter drink, add 1 cup of purée to a carafe or pitcher. Top off the carafe with TOST Sparkling. Add mint to garnish.
