Notes

Making Grandmother’s Peach Fuzz is easy, but here are a few tips to ensure it turns out perfectly every time:
 
  • Use Fresh, Ripe Peaches: The quality of your peaches makes all the difference. Choose peaches that are soft, fragrant, and slightly fuzzy. If fresh peaches aren’t available, you can use frozen ones, but fresh is always better.
  • Peel the Peaches: While the fuzz adds character to the fruit, peeling the peaches will give the drink a smoother texture. Simply blanch the peaches in hot water for 30 seconds, then transfer them to an ice bath, and the skin will slide right off.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Depending on the natural sweetness of your peaches, you may need to add more or less sugar. Taste as you go to find the perfect balance.
  • Add a Splash of Lemon or Lime Juice: A small amount of citrus juice enhances the peach flavor and adds a bright, zesty note.
  • Chill Before Serving: For the best experience, serve the drink ice-cold. You can even freeze the glasses for a frosty touch.
