Substitutes
You can switch out ingredients in this cocktail to match what you have at home or your taste preferences.
Replace peach nectar with mango, apricot, or pear nectar. Each gives the drink a different but tasty twist.
For a non-alcoholic version, use sparkling cider or alcohol-free prosecco instead of champagne. You can also mix sparkling water with a splash of white grape juice.
If you don’t have lavender syrup, try using:
- Vanilla syrup
- Rose syrup
- Elderflower syrup
- Honey simple syrup
Note: The drink’s color might change depending on which substitutes you pick. The taste will be a bit different too, but still refreshing.
Fresh peaches work in place of nectar during peach season. Just blend 2-3 ripe peaches until smooth.
