Prep Time 5 minutes minutes

Total Time 5 minutes minutes

Serving Size 1

Equipment

• Cocktail shaker
• Jigger or measuring cup
• Muddler
• Fine-mesh strainer
• Tall glass or highball glass
• Bar spoon
• Knife and cutting board
• Citrus juicer (optional)

Ingredients

• 2 oz peach nectar or juice
• 1½ oz elderflower liqueur like St-Germain
• 1 oz vodka
• ½ oz freshly squeezed lime juice
• 2 peach slices fresh or canned
• Sparkling water or club soda to top
• Ice cubes
• Mint sprig or extra peach slice for garnish optional

Instructions

• Add the peach slices and lime juice to a shaker.
• Muddle well until the peaches break down.
• Pour in the vodka, elderflower liqueur, and peach nectar.
• Add some ice cubes to the shaker.
• Shake hard for about 15 seconds.
• Strain the liquid into a tall glass filled with fresh ice.
• Top with sparkling water or club soda.
• Stir gently with a bar spoon.
• Garnish with a mint sprig or a peach slice if you’re feeling fancy.

Notes

I like serving this drink right away so the bubbles stay lively. If I’m in the mood for something sweeter, a splash of simple syrup does the trick.

Crushed ice makes it extra cold and refreshing, though regular ice cubes are just fine too.

For a group, I’ll multiply the recipe for a pitcher, muddle the peaches, and mix everything except the sparkling water. When it’s time to serve, I pour over ice and top each glass with soda so it doesn’t go flat.

Sometimes I’ll swap in different fruit garnishes—berries, maybe an orange twist. But elderflower and peach always steal the show.

Tasting Notes

When I take that first sip, the Elderflower and Peach Fizz Cocktail just has this light, floral aroma. The elderflower really stands out with a gentle sweetness.

The peach is soft and fruity, pairing so nicely with the elderflower. It’s balanced—not too strong, not too sweet.

Here’s how the flavor hits me:

• Initial Taste: Subtle elderflower, then peach comes in
• Mid-Palate: Mild sweetness, floral notes hanging around
• Finish: Crisp and refreshing, thanks to all that fizz

The cocktail’s a pale, slightly golden color. Tiny bubbles rise up, making it look lively and fresh—almost too pretty to drink.

This drink’s easy to love, even if you’re not really a cocktail person. I think the fizziness lifts the flavors and keeps everything gentle and pleasant.

The drink feels cool and never heavy. If you want to dress it up, try serving with a peach slice or a sprig of mint—just for that little extra.

Substitute

Sometimes I just don’t have all the ingredients or tools for this cocktail.

Here are a few easy swaps I’ve tried:

Equipment substitutes:

• If I can’t find my cocktail shaker, a mason jar with a lid gets the job done.
• No muddler? The back of a spoon is honestly fine.

Ingredient substitutes:

• Elderflower liqueur: Occasionally I use elderflower syrup with a splash of vodka. Is it the same? Not exactly, but it works.
• Peach nectar: When I’m out, I’ll blend up fresh peaches or just grab some peach juice.
• Sparkling water: Club soda or even tonic water can stand in here.
• Lemon juice: Bottled lemon juice is okay if I don’t have fresh lemons around.

Instructions adjustments:

• If I’m making it non-alcoholic, I just add syrup instead of liqueur.
• Want it a bit sweeter? I’ll stir in a little honey or agave, depending on what I have.
