This is the one that tastes like being somewhere else. Peach, orange and cranberry, soft and juicy with a clean finish, blended in small batches at our place in Manchester. It is a holiday drink that does not require a holiday, which is handy given the British summer does what it likes.
Juicy, Not Sickly
Peach drinks go wrong when they taste like a sweet shop. Ours leans on the fruit rather than the sugar, ripe peach up front, orange behind it and a cranberry tartness underneath that keeps the whole thing fresh. It is the sort of drink that disappears faster than you planned, mainly because it is genuinely refreshing rather than heavy.
Our Take on a Beach Classic
If it tastes familiar, that is deliberate. This is our version of the peach and cranberry beach cocktail that has been on holiday bar menus for decades. We have kept the flavour everyone recognises and given it a name we prefer, so you can order a round without anyone at the table having to say it out loud.
Cans and the Bottle
The 200ml cans come in an 8 pack for the fridge or a 24 pack when there is a barbecue, a birthday or an actual stretch of sunshine forecast. Each can is a finished cocktail, so there is nothing to mix and nothing to measure.
The 700ml bottle pours seven serves at a standard 100ml measure, and it is a natural for a jug, pour it over ice with orange slices and let people help themselves. If the group cannot agree, the taster pack puts eight Boozy flavours in one box.
How to Serve It
Tall glass, lots of ice, and a slice of orange if you are feeling organised. It takes the sun beautifully, so this is the one to have in the cool box for the beach, the park or the garden. Chill the cans properly first, at least a couple of hours, and it does the rest.
How Strong Is It?
Cans and bottle are both 8.4% ABV, which is about 1.7 UK units per 200ml can and roughly 5.9 units in the full 700ml bottle. It drinks easily, so the numbers are worth having. Our Cocktail ABV Calculator compares it against the same drink mixed at home.
Small Batch, Made By Us
Blended and canned by us in Manchester in small batches, on our own kit. Balancing peach against cranberry without tipping into squash territory took a fair few attempts, and it is the version our customers kept asking us not to change.
Rather Make Your Own?
My Peach on the Beach recipe has the build if you fancy shaking one yourself. And when the cool box needs filling in a hurry, the cans are on our ready to drink cocktail cans page with the rest of the range.
Peach on the Beach FAQs
What does it taste like?
Ripe peach first, then orange, with a cranberry sharpness underneath that stops it being sweet. Fruity and refreshing rather than heavy.
Do I need to add anything?
Only ice. It is a finished cocktail, not a mixer, so nothing needs topping up with juice or lemonade.
Is it the same as the classic beach cocktail?
It is our take on it. Same peach, orange and cranberry character people know from holiday bars, ready mixed and under our own name.
How many serves in the 700ml bottle?
Seven at a standard 100ml pour. Keep it chilled and serve long over plenty of ice.
