Sipping Saturday
Happy Saturday! I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday weekend with family and friends. In keeping with the 4th of July weekend theme I had planned on mixing together a blueberry margarita.
But the peaches won. Every morning as I walked into my kitchen the smell of fresh peaches enveloped my senses.
The scent of fresh peaches hands down is one of the best smells of the summer season. My knees weakened as I juiced my peaches to mix with my tequila. A thick layer of salt to rim my glass and I am ready for a relaxing weekend. Enjoy!
When selecting your peaches feel for firm peach with a deep crease. The color of the peaches should begin as a blush and fade into a yellow cream color.
A ripe peach gives off a heavenly scent that is not easily forgotten. Check for bruises and knicks.
Not need to peel your peach, the peel adds to the wonderful flavor.

I love peach a lot. I’ve never thought of peach in margarita before. Nice photo, makes me want to drink out of the picture.
Ooooh, looks simply yummy! I love peaches, and the other listed flavors above have my mind reeling… Definitely worth a Stumble. 🙂
Move over Bellini. It’s tequila and peach time.
Looks DELICIOUS! And it’s making me a bit thirsty 😉
First time visiting your blog, esa margarita looks de-li-cious.
The Georgia peaches are all over and fabulous right now.
Thank you for the weekend drink!
I Stumbled it!
Oh peach…so divine! I had a margarita earlier in the week and I though of you 🙂
Gorgeous and refreshing!
you have absolutely become the drink queen. this is another winner, as far as i’m concerned. a lovely refreshment!
simply the best yet, maybe ’cause I favor peaches…. hope your holiday was the best
Mmmm! I think I can smell those delicious peaches all the way down here. 😉 Your Peach Margarita looks real good. I like that below, you have a recipe for a mango(!) one, too. Awesome!
What a beautiful color and it sounds absolutely divine! I haven’t had any fresh peaches yet this summer but I sure am craving some (and this drink too!) after reading your post. My husband is taking medication right now for his back so I’m afraid we won’t be able to have any cocktails until he stops taking them. But this is a margarita I definitely want to try after he’s recovered! Have a wonderful day! sheila
This looks delicious….I have to taste it. Thanks for sharing your collection of margaritas.
Have a great week 🙂
This looks so refreshing…! I love the look of the frosty glass too, makes me want to take a sip …:)!!
Woo Hoo! Great Sipping Saturday mix 🙂
Who does like a cold refreshing marjarita on a hot summer day? Yum!
Yum! The peach sounds so nice in a margarita! And, I love your entire list!
It’s almost as if you KNOW exactly what fruits I bought at the grocery store this week. I have a TON of peaches and I think some of them are going to have to be made into margaritas! Yum!
Why did I have to see this so early in the morning! I want one now! Happy 4th!
Divine!
Cheers,
