Ingredients

  • 4 sprigs fresh mint, divided, or as needed

  • ¾ fluid ounce peach nectar

  • 1 ½ fluid ounces bourbon

  • ¾ fluid ounce ginger liqueur (such as Domaine de Canton®)

  • ice as needed

Directions

  1. Muddle 5 to 8 mint leaves, depending on size, with peach nectar in a cocktail shaker until leaves are broken down, about 1 minute.

  2. Pour in bourbon and ginger liqueur and fill the shaker with ice. Close and shake until well chilled. Strain into a rocks glass with a large whiskey ice cube.

  3. Lightly slap 2 sprigs of mint between your hands to release their scent, then garnish the drink with them.

Cook's Note:

You can use regular ice cubes if you don't have the special tray. Use a wooden spoon if you don't have a muddler.
