Prep Time: 5 mins
Servings: 1
1 Cut ¼ of the peach into small chunks for muddling and slice the remaining ¼ for garnish.
2 Add peach chunks and simple syrup to a double old fashioned glass. Muddle until peaches release their juices. Add mint leaves and gently press them once or twice to release their aroma.
3 Pour in bourbon and fresh lemon juice. Stir to combine.
4 Fill glass with crushed ice and stir until well chilled.
5 Top with a splash of club soda, if desired.
6 Garnish with the fresh peach slices and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tip: Use ripe peaches for the sweetest flavor and easiest muddling. Adjust the simple syrup depending on how sweet your peaches are.
