The Peach Martini is a spin on the flavored vodka martini. The classic martini is ultra dry and uses only two ingredients: gin and dry vermouth. But there’s an entire family of vodka martinis that are the exact opposite: fruity, sweet, and full of bright colors and big flavors. These originally developed as a spin off on the dry martini and become very popular in the 1990’s.
This Peach Martini has the best fruity flavor and smooth finish! Here are all the secrets to this tasty cocktail that works in any season.
Place the peach schnapps, vodka, orange juice, triple sec, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Add 2 handfuls of ice and shake until cold.
Strain the drink into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a peach slice if desired.
Notes
*To convert to tablespoons, 1 ounce = 2 tablespoons.**Have fresh ripe peaches on hand and want to use them instead of orange juice? Slice them and muddle 5 to 6 slices in a cocktail shaker. They must be ripe, in season peaches for this to work!
