Cocktail Colin says:
"She's a Peach" strikes a delectable balance with its savvy mix of zesty lemon juice and sweet peach nectar countered by the deep, molasses tones of black rum. The ginger syrup injects a bright spiciness that seamlessly ties together the sweetness and acidity, creating a cocktail that's both refreshing and robustly flavored, perfect for a signature wedding choice or a celebratory summer evening.
