INGREDIENTS:
* 20mg THC total cannabis tincture
* 1 large ripe peach, pitted and chopped
* 1 inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
* 1 oz fresh lemon juice
* 1 oz agave nectar or peach syrup
* 6 oz chilled sparkling water or club soda
* Fresh ice
* Garnish: Thin peach slices and a sliver of candied ginger
INSTRUCTIONS:
* Place the chopped peach and sliced ginger into a cocktail shaker.
* Muddle thoroughly for about 1 minute, until the peach is well-pulped and the ginger has released its juices.
* Add the fresh lemon juice, agave nectar, and the cannabis tincture (20mg total) to the shaker.
* Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 20 seconds to chill and combine all ingredients.
* Fill two large wine glasses or highball glasses with fresh ice.
* Double strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into the glasses, pressing on the solids to extract all the flavorful peach-ginger juice.
* Top each glass with 3 oz of chilled sparkling water.
* Stir gently once to incorporate the sparkling water without losing carbonation.
* Garnish with a thin peach slice draped over the rim and a delicate piece of candied ginger.
CHEF TIPS:
Peach Perfection: Use a freestone peach variety for easy pitting and optimal sweetness. If fresh peaches aren't in season, high-quality canned peaches (in juice, not syrup) can be substituted.
Ginger Strength: For an extra spicy kick, leave a bit of the ginger skin on when muddling or add a small amount of ginger bitters.
Sweetness Adjustment: Taste the muddled peach-ginger base before adding the sparkling water. If peaches are less ripe, you might need a touch more agave.
Serve immediately. Enjoy the Peach Ginger Spritz responsibly 🍑🫚
