"I keep hearing that summer is ending soon. People, come to Arizona – stepping outside tells me and my scorched feet that we’ve got another 2 months, minimum. ♨️ ? __ So, I’m proceeding accordingly. After seeing my good man @apartment_bartender infuse some bourbon with peaches and pecans a while back I knew I had to give it a go. (Check out his subsequent “Peach Summer Sipper” cocktail…ridiculously good!) Fast forward to today and this is my 3rd batch. Just do it and thank me later. __ I made a few small variations to his recipe. 1️⃣ I used rye instead of bourbon to ensure it wasn’t too sweet and 2️⃣ I roasted the pecans first (even did a batch with brown sugar sprinkled on the pecans before roasting). Success, the bite of the rye was a perfect balance to the sweetness of the ripe peaches and nuttiness (sp?) of the pecans. Got a few great cocktails to feature with this infusion coming up. __ In a 16 oz mason jar: ?Add 1 peach, no pit, diced in medium chunks ?Add 3/4 cup pecans ?Fill with whisky/bourbon of choice ?Seal with cap, shake, place in fridge ?Wait 6 days, shaking a couple times here and there, strain through cheesecloth, place in airtight bottle and keep in fridge indefinitely __ Mix up a batch and make summer last forever (in your mouth at least ?)"
