Bourbon Peach Cooler
Report
If you can't get Bonal, you can use another spirit in its place, such as crème de pêche (or peach liqueur), Lillet, Cap Corse, Dubonnet, or Punt e Mes or Dolin sweet vermouth - or another red vermouth that leans toward the bitter side. If using something on the sweet side, like crème de pêche or Lillet, you may want to use only 1/4 ounce of the muscovado syrup.
To make muscovado syrup, heat 1/4 cup (60ml) water with 1/4 cup (50g) dark brown sugar. Stir over the heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool, then pour into a jar and refrigerate until ready to use. The syrup will keep for at least a week.

Ingredients
- Three (1/2-inch/2cm) slices of fresh peaches peeled and diced
- 1/2 ounce muscovado syrup (see headnote)
- 2 ounces bourbon
- 1/2 ounce Bonal
- Ginger beer, sparkling cider tonic water, or beer
- Peach slices for garnish
- fresh mint for garnish
Instructions
- Put the peach pieces in a cocktail shaker with the muscovado syrup. Use a muddler or a fork to mash them very well, so they are liquified as much as possible.
- Add the bourbon and Bonal to the cocktail shaker. Fill the shaker half-full of ice, cover and shake vigorously until well-chilled and the ice is broken up, 15 to 20 seconds.
- Remove the lid and either strain into a tumbler (the peaches may be a bit fibrous so you might need to help it pass through the mesh strainer with the aid of a soup spoon or spatula), then add ice. Or you can just open the shaker and pour the icy mixture into a tumbler. Pour a splash of ginger beer, or another sparkler, into the glass and garnish with peach slices and fresh mint.
