Just Peachy

Just Peachy

Zero-waste cocktails for the win! We teamed up with our friends at The Ugly Company to bring you a refreshing and flavorful peach cocktail that's twice as sustainable!

The Ugly Company upcycles ugly fruit and transforms it into packaged dried fruit snacks to reduce food waste. They are delicious out of the bag and perfect for an infused cocktail syrup alongside an upcycled spirit like Wheyward Spirit.

After making a delicious syrup and refreshing cocktail, use the peach pieces once more for a sweet treat.

‍

Upcycled Peach Syrup

¾ cup water

¾ cup sugar

2 oz The Ugly Company dried peaches

Combine water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, occasionally stir to dissolve sugar, and simmer for about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in peaches. Let cool and stir in an airtight jar in the fridge overnight. When ready to use, strain out fruit pieces and set them aside to make candied fruit. Store in an airtight jar in the fridge. Makes about 5 oz. of syrup. 

‍

Just Peachy Cocktail

2 oz Wheyward Spirit

1 oz Upcycled Peach Syrup

½ oz lemon juice

4 oz club soda

Mint leaves for garnish

Add Wheyward Spirit, syrup, and lemon juice to a shaker and shake with ice. Strain into a glass with fresh ice, top with club soda, and garnish with a fresh mint leaf. 

‍

Upcycled Candied Peaches

2 oz peach fruit pieces from homemade peach syrup

White sugar 

Take strained fruit pieces from syrup and lightly coat with sugar. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake at 250°F for 40-50 minutes or until the pieces start to harden, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Let dry then store in an airtight container at room temperature for a sweet, zero-waste snack alongside your cocktail.

Somewhere between a Manhattan and a Martini lies the classic Martinez cocktail. With the use of sweet vermouth, a hint of maraschino liqueur, and the natural sweetness of Wheyward Spirit, the Martinez is a perfect cocktail for any time of day.
