Sparkling Peach Cocktail | Magnolia Days

The morning started with heavy rain. It was a complete downpour. I think what woke me was thunder. It was either that or the sound of water gushing out of downspouts. That day kicked off a string of wet, grey days with a winter chill. There was one thing I wanted more than anything. And that one thing was summer. I longed for shorts, flip-flops, and warm sunshine. Thoughts of going to the market and smelling all the fresh fruit and vegetables filled my head. All I could do was to mix up a sparkling peach cocktail to satisfy a craving for a season long gone.

Peaches are a highlight of summer in the south. Some year’s harvest are better than others. The best are when they are so juicy it is hard to hold them while peeling and slicing. I have to remember to hold them over a bowl to catch every drop. Oh what I would give for a bag of those peaches right now. Sigh. Hopefully this summer will bring one of those superb crops.

Meanwhile winter is at hand. Fortunately peach nectar and frozen peach slices are available. All you have to do is shake the nectar with peach brandy, orange juice, and lemon juice. Pour it over ice in glasses and top it with sparkling wine. Garnish with peach slices. Pretending it is summer while sipping on a sparkling peach cocktail is entirely up to you.

What do you crave in winter? Or at the end of the year? Is there something you must have before January arrives? Scroll down to see what some of my fellow Sunday Supper bloggers are craving. There are plenty of tasty recipes to be discovered. A big thank you to Cindy of Cindy’s Recipes and Writings for hosting our year end event.

    Gorgeous photos and cocktail! It looks like summer in a glass.

    We should trade places, I live in perpetual summer and every winter I long for rain and cloudy days that are below 70. It doesn’t feel like the holidays when it is still in the 80’s.

    Happy New Year!

    If you’re craving summer dearest Renee, please feel free to fly to Santa Monica CA. (It’s 60s-70ish weather.) We’ve got a fully equipped office apartment with WiFi waiting for you =) I’ll even make you a fresh version of your fantabulously cocktail full of Georgia peach cheer. For this Ninja Baker, cravings in winter include baked mochi with soy sauce or sweet bean paste.

    What a wonderful drink this is! And you’re right – peaches are a summer highlight in the south. My parents lived outside Charleston SC for a few years and my mom and I would go to a farm to pick some peaches to take home. They were the best peaches I’ve had to this day.
