Tips for Making the Peachy Lady cocktail

Reverse Dry Shake Whenever Rico is making a Sour, he likes to use a reverse dry shake to get that wonderful frothy, velvety texture from the Egg Whites (or Aquafaba). A reverse dry shake involves first shaking the cocktail ingredients with Ice, then straining out the Ice and shaking again without Ice. Always Use Fresh Lemon Juice If you want your drinks to taste like the ones you get when you’re out, you need to make your own Lemon Juice. It’s that simple. We can’t overemphasize the importance of making your own Lemon Juice instead of buying the bottled stuff from a store. This applies to all drinks, including the Peachy Lady.

Serving and Garnish Ideas for a Peachy Lady

We recommend serving the Peachy Lady in a Nick & Nora Glass or a Cocktail Glass just like the Perfect Lady. Read our article on the different types of glassware used for making cocktails. To garnish, Rico cuts a fresh and juicy Peach Wedge and places that on the side of the glass to really accentuate the Peach notes.

The Peachy Lady is a vodka variation of the classic gin cocktail, the Perfect Lady, created by Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador, Ricardo ‘Rico’ Dynan.

Since the Peachy Lady uses Absolut Peach as its base, it omits the Crème de Pêche (Peach Liqueur) found in the original and opts for a peach wedge garnish instead of lemon zest.

In other words, if you love peaches, this might just be your new favorite drink!

The Peachy Lady is a vodka version of the gin classic, the Perfect Lady made with peach-flavored vodka. It was invented by Ricardo ‘Rico’ Dynan, Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador.

“It’s deliciously peachy,” says Rico. He’s spot on – the drink may lack the floral gin notes of the classic Perfect Lady, but it compensates with an intensified peach flavor thanks in no small part to Absolut Peach.

The Peachy Lady is a new cocktail created in the summer of 2024 by Ricardo ‘Rico’ Dynan, Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador.

The Peachy Lady is a Vodka variation of the Gin-based cocktail classic, the Perfect Lady.

While making the Perfect Lady cocktail for an episode of ‘Absolut Drinks with Rico’, Rico wanted to see if he could make a Vodka variation. Lo and behold, the Peachy Lady was born.

Yes. You can use Aquafaba, which is a vegan egg white substitution.

Learn more about Aquafaba and how to use it in your cocktails.

You can also use “super foam”, which Rico mentions in the video. Watch Kevin Kos show you how to make super foam.

You can, indeed….that’s the recipe you’re looking at right here! The Perfect Lady made with vodka instead of gin is what we call The Peachy Lady.

We recommend using peach-flavored vodka. You could use unflavored vodka but we’d recommend you add Crème de Pêche (Peach Liqueur) like The Perfect Lady so you get those peach flavors.
