    I take happy hour very seriously! This easy Homemade Peach Mocktail Recipe is perfect for any happy hour occasion. This is sweet but refreshing and has the nice taste of the fresh mint leaves as an added freshness. I use honey in place of sugar in the simple syrup which makes them refined sugar free. This better for you drink is loaded with flavor and is oh so delicious. I like keeping a stash of my peach simple syrup on hand at all times during these warm summer months.

    If you are new here, you may have missed I gave up alcohol years ago! It has been life changing in the best way. I wrote all about it in one of my blog posts about giving up alcohol. Since then I have become a big fan of mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. I have many of my favorites on my blog like my Watermelon Mocktail, Grapefruit Mocktails, Pineapple Margarita Mocktails, Blood Orange Mocktails, and Alcohol Free Champagne Mocktails. All of them are so delicious and oh so refreshing.

    Why You Will Love This Recipe

    • This delicious drink is perfect for hot summer days!
    • This perfect mocktail only takes 10 minutes of prep time.
    • If you are a big fan of peaches like I am, you can buy peaches in bulk and make the syrup to freeze. I love having a refreshing drink like this on hand! 
    • If you have extra ripe peaches you can make my Vegan Peach Cobbler or Homemade Freeze Pops.
    • Unlike most simple syrups, this recipe is not loaded with artificial flavors and instead has so much natural sweeteners from the peaches. You are getting the real thing with this recipe!
    • This simple recipe only takes minutes to make!

    Fresh Ingredients

    • Yellow Peach Slices: This is a great summer fruit! Depending on the ripeness of the peach will also determine how sweet your simple syrup is. If your peaches are extremely ripe, you may want to decrease the amount of honey to prevent your syrup from being overly sweet. 
    • Honey: I like to use honey in place of sugar for my simple syrups. If you do not like honey, you could use another natural sweetener such as agave.
    • Filtered Water: To add liquid to your peach simple syrup.
    • Fresh basil: This mint adds a nice refreshing layer to this drink.
    • Club Soda: Gives the drink a cocktail feel without the alcohol.

    See recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.

    Substitutions and Variations

    • If you do not like the non-alcoholic version, you can swap out the club soda for your alcohol of choice to make a peach cocktail.
    • If you do not have fresh peaches, you can use frozen peaches. You will want to ensure to thaw the peaches completely prior to making your simple syrup so that you reduce the amount of added liquid.
    • Alternative herbs-I also like rosemary sprigs or fresh mint.
    • Fresh fruits-You can also toss in other fresh fruit like strawberries or any of your favorite summer fruit!
    • Peach lemonade-If you love fresh lemonade in the summer like I do, you can use the peach simple syrup in my Homemade Raspberry Lemonade recipe in place of the raspberries and by adding fresh lemon juice. 
    • Lemon wedge-Sometimes I like serving with a lemon wedge!

    Step by Step Instructions

    Sliced peaches, fresh basil, water, and honey in a bit pot.
    Step #1: Place the sliced peaches and all ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil.
    Peach simple syrup in boiled in a large bowl.
    Step #2: Once the peach syrup is brought to a boil simmer it on medium low for 15 minutes.
    Strained peaches in a large metal bowl.
    Step #3: Allow the syrup to set for 10 minutes. Then, Strain the syrup in a large bowl with a strainer. Serve the mixer cold with sparkling water and your favorite granishes.

    Equipment Needed

    • Small saucepan

    Expert Tips

    • Tip # 1: Allow the syrup to completely cool prior to placing in a jar in the fridge.
    • Tip # 2: Before boiling, you will want to make sure that your liquids are well combined. This will prevent the honey from settling or being stuck to the side of the sauce pan.

    Recipe FAQ’s

    Can I use frozen peaches?

    Yes! If you use frozen peaches you will want to make sure to allow the peaches to thaw completely before using in the syrup. This will help to get rid of some of the extra liquid the frozen fruit may carry.

    How do I know if a peach is ripe?

    A peach that is extremely hard to the touch may not be as ripe or sweet as one that is slightly softened. You won’t want the peach to be overly soft. If your peaches are too hard when you first purchase, you can allow to sit out and get more ripe prior to using if you have the time. If you do not have time to allow the peaches to get more ripe, you can add additional honey to the simple syrup to account for the unripe peaches.

    What else can I pair this simple syrup with?

    The options are limitless! I love pairing mine with club soda or sparkling water. You could also pair this with your favorite liquor of choice or use it to mix with lemonade or another drink of choice.

    When is peach season?

    Peach season runs from April and October.

      I absolutely love anything peach, so I was so excited to try Allianna’s peach basil mocktail. I give it a 100/10, and would ABSOLUTELY make it again! The basil gives it an extra flavor that really suits the mocktail. It is a great pick me up at the end of a long day. Can’t wait to explore her blog more! Xoxo
