Peach Rose Lemonade Signature Drink Inspiration + Recipe

peach and rose lemonade inspiration

February is a time for soft romance and the anticipation of spring, so for this month’s inspiration board and signature cocktail, I wanted to keep things light and sweet. I hope you enjoy this white peach + rose lemonade signature cocktail. The peaches mellows out the traditional tartness of the lemons and the rose water adds a soft and sophisticated flavor, elevating traditional lemonade to a drink befitting of a wedding. Because it’s non-alcoholic, it’s a perfect way to hydrate your guests, especially at altitude. Serve it as a refreshing pre-ceremony drink. To offer as a traditional signature drink, add vodka. Enjoy!

  • 3 cups white peaches, chopped into pieces

Directions for 4: Place chopped peaches, water and sugar in a heavy bottomed sauce pan over medium heat.  Allow to cook down, about 20 minutes.  Set aside to cool slightly, then run through a blender until pureed.  Pour peach mixture through a fine sieve and place in refrigerator until chilled.  Meanwhile, squeeze the juice from lemons.  Once peach mixture has chilled in a pitcher combine with lemon juice and rose water.  Serve chilled.
