Lazy Betty - Practice What You Peach

This is a bourbon-based peach-forward cocktail, ideal for the current spring season and future summer season as well. We started with Four Roses Yellow barrel, a blend of 10 different distillates from Four Roses. Because this product has a characteristic stonefruit nose we wanted to pair it with Merlet Crème de Peche, a beautiful peach liqueur. Then racy acidic notes are brought forward with a touch of fresh lemon, and a helping of a white balsamic, peach, and ginger shrub. Finally to ground and round it out we shake it with a brown sugar sage based simple syrup. Over Mint granita, and served with a sprig of fresh mint, it becomes bold and refreshing, and with a touch of club soda, you are left with a long crisp favor profile, packed with fresh and bright nuances against a traditional warm deep peach backing.
