When a case of fresh Colorado peaches found its way into our kitchen, we knew we would have to find a way to come up with some great drinks that incorporated peaches. One of the cocktails we tried was the peach basil gin fizz, a spin on the classic gin fizz cocktail. Adding the peaches to this classic sweet and sour cocktail adds a nice sweet summery flavor that compliments the herbal flavors of the gin.
Peach Basil Gin Fizz
A Gin based cocktail with fresh peaches, basil and egg white!

- 2 oz London Dry Gin

Muddle the basil leaves, lemon juice and simple syrup in the bottom of a shaker.

Cheers!
