Peach Tarragon Rum Smash
Could quite possibly be one of the tastiest summer drinks. It’s peachy with a hint of black licorice. It pairs perfectly with rum or whiskey, but rum is my personal preference. I also love that this can be made any time of year because if fresh peaches aren’t in season, then grab some frozen peaches. Let the frozen peaches thaw, them smash them up the same way you would a fresh peach.

- 1 medium sprig of tarragon
