Peaches and Cream Cocktail #FantasticalFoodFight


I love the Fantastical Food Fight coordinated by Sarah of Fantastical Sharing of Recipes. For more information about the event, click here. I haven't been very good at participating, but this month, I couldn't resist. We were given the challenge of making a recipe with peaches and cream. So. Many. Possibilities.


It is peach season, after all. Try as I might, I couldn't come up with a savory peaches and cream recipe. Savory peach recipes, yes; but nothing with peaches and cream! Jake suggested peach cobbler with whipped cream. Fantastic idea...I'll need you to swap out that oven for me first. Hmmm...



Peaches and Cream Cocktail

Ingredients makes 1 cocktail

  • 3 parts bourbon
  • 1 part heavy whipping cream
  • 1 part peach puree
  • 1 part maple syrup
  • pinch of ground cinnamon
  • thin peach slices for garnish
  • Also needed: ice, cocktail shaker

Procedure
Fill cocktail shaker halfway with ice. Pour in the bourbon, cream, peach puree, and maple syrup. Add in a dash of cinnamon. Shake for at least 30  seconds. Strain into a serving glass. Garnish with fresh peach slices. Cheers!

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
