Peaches N Coconut Cream Cocktail Recipe

This drink really nails that balance between the sweetness of peaches and the tropical smoothness of coconut cream. I like how simple it is—just a few tools, and it always comes out creamy and refreshing.

Equipment

• Blender – I use this to get the peaches and coconut cream super smooth.
• Cocktail shaker – Helps chill everything and mix it up just right.
• Measuring jigger – So I don’t overdo (or underdo) any of the liquids.
• Fine mesh strainer – Catches any pulp and keeps the texture silky.
• Knife and cutting board – For slicing those peaches.
• Glassware – Chilled coupe or a short tumbler, whatever feels right.
• Bar spoon – If I want to stir or layer, this does the trick.
• Ice cubes – For blending and shaking.

I keep my tools close before starting. It just makes the whole thing smoother.

Clean gear matters—nobody wants off flavors sneaking in.

Ingredients

• 1 ripe peach, peeled and sliced
• 2 oz white rum or vodka
• 1 oz coconut cream (skip the coconut milk here)
• ½ oz fresh lime juice
• ½ oz simple syrup (taste and adjust)
• 1 oz pineapple juice for that extra fruity kick
• Ice cubes for blending and shaking
• Peach slice or toasted coconut flakes for garnish

I always reach for ripe peaches—they blend smoother and bring natural sweetness. If peaches are out of season, I grab frozen slices and skip a bit of ice so it stays creamy.

Instructions

• Toss the peach slices, rum, coconut cream, lime juice, pineapple juice, and simple syrup into a blender.
• Blend until everything’s smooth and creamy.
• Fill your shaker halfway with ice.
• Pour in the blended mix and give it a good shake—about 15 seconds does it.
• Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled glass.
• Top with a peach slice or a sprinkle of toasted coconut.
• Serve it up right away while it’s icy cold.

A quick shake chills the drink without watering it down. The strainer keeps the texture just right.

Notes

I usually go with white rum for a lighter touch, but vodka steps in when I want something cleaner. For a booze-free version, coconut water stands in for rum.

If the cocktail turns out too thick, I splash in more pineapple juice. If it’s a bit too sweet, I’ll squeeze in some extra lime.

Chilling the glass makes a difference—keeps that drink cold longer. Fresh fruit and cold ingredients really make the flavors pop.

Tasting Notes

Right away, I get the sweetness of ripe peaches. That smooth, mellow fruit flavor just pops—fresh and light, honestly almost like biting into the real thing.

The sweetness never takes over, which makes sipping it feel pretty effortless.

Then comes the coconut cream. It brings this silky texture that gently coats my tongue, leaving behind a mild, nutty note. The way it blends with the peach? Really balanced—not too rich, not too heavy.

The drink gives off an inviting smell. I catch a tropical aroma immediately: sweet fruit, a bit of cream. Makes me think of summer, but honestly, it works year-round.

If you serve it cold, those flavors stay crisp. Toss in a few ice cubes, and it’s still refreshing—doesn’t get watered down. I love how the finish lingers, just a touch of peach and coconut hanging on my palate.

Flavor Highlights:

• Sweet peach upfront
