Sapphire Peppered Peach Tea Collins

My first cocktail recipe for you is the Sapphire Peppered Peach Tea Collins and it tastes as good as it sounds!  While I am no fan of Bombay Sapphire (or gin for that matter), this cocktail is so smooth and refreshing!  The pinch of black pepper evens out the floral notes of the Bombay Sapphire and the simple syrup gives it just the right amount of sweetness.  This is a great cocktail to serve at a picnic or by the pool on a hot summer day.  I think it would also pair nicely with a nice Cobb Salad or some grilled barbeque chicken.   Let me know what you think!
 

INGREDIENTS

1.5 parts BOMBAY SAPPHIRE® Gin
0.5 part fresh lemon juice
1.5 part simple syrup
Peach Iced Tea
Pinch of Black pepper

PREPARATION

Build with ice in a Collins glass
Add more ice, top with club soda and stir well
Garnish with a peach slice and lemon wedge


I don’t hesitate to try gin based cocktails like I used to as the craft cocktail has come a long way and this one is definitely going in my recipe tank!
