Ingredients

• 2 cans sliced peaches in heavy syrup (15 oz each)
• 1 cup peach nectar or peach juice
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 3 cinnamon sticks
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 cups water
• 2 cups Everclear (or high-proof vodka)
• Optional: ½ teaspoon nutmeg for extra spice

Equipment

• Large stockpot
• Fine mesh strainer
• Mason jars or bottles for storage

Instructions

Step 1: Build the Peach Syrup

In a large stockpot, add the sliced peaches (with syrup), peach nectar, water, cinnamon sticks, and brown sugar.

Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Let it cook for 15 minutes until fragrant.

Step 2: Add Vanilla

Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract (and nutmeg if using).

Step 3: Cool and Strain

Allow the mixture to cool completely. Then strain it through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl or pitcher.
Press the peaches lightly to get all the good syrup out.

Step 4: Mix in the Alcohol

Once fully cooled, stir in the Everclear.

Step 5: Bottle It Up

Pour into mason jars or bottles, seal tightly, and refrigerate.

Storing and Serving

• Refrigeration: Keep refrigerated. Good for up to 3 months.
• Flavor Tip: It gets smoother and richer after a week of sitting.
• Serving Ideas: Serve over ice, or warm it gently for a cozy nightcap.
