White Peach Martini

Imagine this: a warm evening, a glowing sunset, and in your hand, the perfect drink that feels as sophisticated as a little black dress but tastes like a carefree summer picnic.

That’s the White Peach Martini.

It’s a delicate balance of sweetness and tanginess, wrapped up in an elegant cocktail glass. I love this drink because it’s like a mini vacation—each sip takes me somewhere breezy and beautiful.

Whether you’re hosting a summer soirée, impressing a date, or just treating yourself to a bit of indulgence after a long week, the White Peach Martini is your go-to cocktail.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s your shopping list for this fruity masterpiece.

Don’t worry—it’s nothing too fancy, but the flavors will make you feel like a mixologist extraordinaire.

• 2 oz vodka (choose something smooth and clean, like Grey Goose or Tito’s)
• 1 oz white peach purée (homemade or store-bought)
• 1 oz fresh lime juice (trust me, fresh makes all the difference!)
• ½ oz simple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)
• ½ oz triple sec or peach liqueur (for that extra peachy punch)
• Ice (for shaking, not munching)
• Fresh peach slice or mint sprig (optional garnish)

Ingredient Breakdown

Vodka: The backbone of your martini. A high-quality vodka ensures the drink is silky and smooth. Cheap vodka? Well, that’s a shortcut to a headache.

White Peach Purée: This is the star of the show. You can make it yourself by blending fresh white peaches, or grab a jar from the store. Pro tip: strain it for a velvety texture.

Fresh Lime Juice: Zesty and refreshing, lime juice cuts through the sweetness and balances the flavors. Skip the bottled stuff—it’s just not the same.

Simple Syrup: This sweetener ties everything together. Make your own by dissolving equal parts sugar and water. Bonus: you can infuse it with herbs like basil for a fancy twist!

Triple Sec or Peach Liqueur: Adds depth and amplifies the peachiness. If you’re feeling extra, try a splash of Grand Marnier for a citrusy upgrade.

Ice: Seems basic, but ice is key. Use plenty of it to chill your drink quickly and create that refreshing frost on your martini glass.

Garnish: It’s the cherry on top—or in this case, the peach slice or mint sprig. It’s optional but adds a little flair that makes the drink Instagram-worthy.

How to Make A White Peach Martini

Step 1: Prep Your Glass

Before you even think about mixing, get that martini glass ready. Pop it in the freezer for a few minutes or fill it with ice water while you work. A chilled glass keeps your drink cool longer and just feels a little more extra. If you want to go all out, rim the glass with sugar for a sweet touch.

Step 2: Make Your Peach Purée (If Homemade)

If you’re going the DIY route for the purée, peel a couple of white peaches, remove the pits, and blend the flesh until smooth. Strain the purée through a fine mesh sieve to get rid of any pesky chunks. You want it silky smooth, like a peach-flavored cloud.

Step 3: Measure and Mix

Grab your trusty cocktail shaker and toss in:

• 2 oz vodka
• 1 oz white peach purée
• 1 oz fresh lime juice
• ½ oz simple syrup
• ½ oz triple sec or peach liqueur

Throw in a generous handful of ice—this step is critical. The ice doesn’t just chill your drink; it also slightly dilutes it, which helps meld all the flavors together.

Step 4: Shake It Up

Here’s where you channel your inner bartender. Seal the shaker and give it a vigorous shake—think Beyoncé-level energy—for about 15-20 seconds. You’ll know you’re doing it right when the shaker gets icy cold and a little frosty on the outside.

Step 5: Strain and Serve

Dump out the ice from your martini glass (if you used it to chill), then strain your cocktail into the glass. Use a fine mesh strainer if you’re extra fussy about texture. The result should be a gorgeously pale peach-colored drink that looks as dreamy as it tastes.

Step 6: Garnish and Enjoy

Top it off with a thin slice of fresh peach or a sprig of mint for a pop of color. Take a second to admire your creation—it’s a work of art! Then, sip, savor, and let the compliments roll in.

Tips for the Perfect White Peach Martini

1. Play with the Sweetness: Too sweet? Add a dash more lime juice. Not sweet enough? Drizzle in extra simple syrup until it hits the right note.
2. Batch It for Parties: Multiply the recipe and make a big pitcher for your next gathering. Just shake individual servings before pouring to keep the texture fresh.
3. Experiment with Garnishes: Fresh raspberries, edible flowers, or even a sugared rim can take this drink to the next level.
4. Use Crushed Ice for a Frothier Texture: If you like your martinis a bit frothy, shake it with crushed ice for an extra vigorous mix.
