Peach Lemonade Tequila Pitcher

A great way to enjoy happy hour with friends is just a few minutes away with this Peach Lemonade Tequila Pitcher recipe.

Summer Peach Lemonade Tequila

Friday happy hour here in the south can be brutally hot, and on those days, two essentials that pair great are tequila and ice-cold lemonade!

After two appearances of my Tequila Lemonade Pitcher recipe this summer, I knew I had to keep the lemonade and tequila pitcher ideas coming. And so, this peach lemonade tequila recipe was created and approved by my friends.

If you're new here, other pitcher-sized tequila cocktails that are perfect for summer include the Tequila Sunrise Pitcher, Tequila Sangria, and my epic Blue Hawaiian Pitcher.

Ingredients

You'll find the amounts to this Peach Lemonade Tequila Pitcher in the recipe card below; but before you make any swaps or omit something crucial, check out why each ingredient is needed:

• Tequila: use your favorite brand of blanco or silver.
• Peach Lemonade: make it at home with the recipe below, or buy it already made.
• Peaches: optional for garnish. Have extra peaches? No worries, blend them up and make my delicious peach pancake syrup!

How to Make Peach Lemonade Tequila in a Pitcher

The detailed steps for making this Peach Lemonade Tequila Pitcher are written in detail in the recipe card; here are some additional tips in each to ensure the best drink:

1. Make the simple syrup
   Simple syrup for cocktails is sugar and water combined. You'll need it if you're making your own peach lemonade. If not, skip this step.
2. Fill the pitcher
   The best part about large batch recipes is that everything gets combined inside the pitcher. Make sure to refrigerate it as long as possible, you can make it a day ahead.
3. Serve & Garnish
   To a glass, pour mixture over ice, and garnish with peaches slices and enjoy!

Serving Peach Lemonade Tequila for a Crowd

The key to serving tequila drinks to a crowd is to have the pitcher chilled and ready to serve over ice to your guests. You can mix this cocktail a day or two ahead and keep it in the fridge. One final tip that makes serving easier is to have all your garnishes pre-sliced or skewered through a cocktail pick for a fun and festive decoration!
