Peaches and Cream Margarita

Use the leftover puree to make peach bellinis or as an extra dose of fruit in a frozen peach dessert such as a peach shake. Use it as a flavorful stir-in for a serving of yogurt or overnight oats. It is also a delicious topping for vanilla ice cream!

How long does peach puree last?
When stored properly in the refrigerator, leftover peach puree should last between three and four days. If you made a big batch of peach puree, you can also store it in the freezer. Simply transfer it to a freezer-safe container, cover and freeze it for up to three months.

Peaches and Cream Margarita Tips

Can you make peaches and cream margarita batch cocktails?
Because of the cream and fresh citrus juice in this margarita recipe, it is best to batch it only if you plan to serve the drinks immediately after making the large serving. To batch this cocktail, multiply the ingredient amounts by the number of servings. Rather than shaking individual cocktails, pour the ingredients into a pitcher filled with ice. Stir to combine and until the ingredients are well-chilled. Pour the cocktail into individual glasses rimmed with salt and filled with ice.

What’s the best type of glass for peaches and cream margaritas?
The most common margarita glass is a coupette glass, which has a tall stem and a wide, shallow bowl. However, other types of cocktail glasses, such as a rocks or lowball glass, work just as well.
