Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients:
- 2 fresh peaches, pitted and diced
- 2-3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup
- 2 cups sparkling water
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Optional: fresh rosemary sprigs and peach slices for garnish
Instructions:
- Begin by adding the diced peaches into a blender. Add the honey or agave syrup and blend until smooth. You will be enchanted by the vibrant, sweet aroma of fresh peaches as you blend them.
- Strain the peach puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a large jug to remove any solid bits, ensuring your spritzer is smooth and delightful.
- Add the fresh rosemary sprigs to the peach puree in the jug. Allow it to sit and infuse for about 5 minutes. The fragrant rosemary will add a refreshing herbal note to the sweet peaches.
- Fill serving glasses with the ice cubes, and pour in the peach and rosemary mix until about halfway full.
- Carefully top up the glasses with sparkling water. The gentle fizz of the sparkling water is the perfect complement to the sweet, herb-infused peach puree.
- Stir gently to combine, and garnish with a sprig of rosemary and a slice of fresh peach if desired. Now, your Peach Rosemary Spritzer is ready to be savored!
Helpful Tips and Variations:
- For a natural sweetener, you can substitute the honey with pomegranate juice.
- To enhance the refreshment factor, serve the spritzer in chilled glasses.
- This drink is perfect for parties – consider preparing a larger batch and letting guests serve themselves.
Storage and Substitutions:
- Refrigerate any leftover peach puree in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Re-blend before use to refresh the mixture.
- If fresh peaches are out of season, frozen peaches can be used. Just thaw them before blending.
- For a lower-calorie version, substitute honey with a sugar-free sweetener of your choice.
Pairings and Complements:
- Enjoy your Peach Rosemary Spritzer with light snacks like cheese and crackers, or a fresh summer salad.
- This drink pairs beautifully with a gentle dessert such as lemon sorbet or a fruit tart.
