Sipping on a frozen peach and citrus refresher is a great way to beat the summer heat! Frozen peaches blend with lemonade and coconut cream for a vibrant and smooth drink. Make the beverage even more irresistible with a zesty Tajin Sugar rim!
Frozen Summer Peach Refresher
A cool frozen drink is a must on a hot summer day and whipped frozen lemonade and this frozen peach refresher are two beverages that should be on rotation! The peach refresher combines frozen peaches with tart lemonade to make a light and cool drink.
Why I Make This Drink Weekly
- It’s easy – The ingredients go into a blender and that’s it. Instant cool down!
- It’s refreshing – Hence the name! Peach and lemonade combine for a drink worthy of any summer day by the pool.
- Tajin – Whether I line the rim of the glass with it or sprinkle it on top, the Tajin adds a zesty kick to the peach drink.
- Creamy undertones – To give the drink a little more heft, I like to add coconut cream. This creates such a delicious balance to the tart lemonade.
Ingredient Notes
- Frozen Peaches – Since this is a frozen drink, I recommend frozen peaches. You could use fresh peaches, for a non-frozen drink.
- Lemonade – Your favorite store-bought lemonade works great! Or, if you want to make your own, try my ginger lemonade and omit the ginger.
- Coconut Milk – Carton or canned coconut milk can work. I have tested the drink with carton coconut milk and canned coconut milk. The coconut milk makes the drink creamy, but you can swap in any milk of choice.
- Fresh Peach – The fresh peach is for peach slices to garnish the refresher.
- Tajin Seasoning – A delicious complement to the peach! Tajin adds a zing to the drink.
- Granulated Sugar – For the Tajin sugar rim.
What Is Tajin Seasoning
Tajin Seasoning is a classic Mexican seasoning made from chili peppers, lime, and sea salt. It is a balanced and mild seasoning that tastes great on a variety of foods – including something sweet! I use it on savory dishes and also sprinkle it over fresh fruit – as I did in my creamy dairy-free mango mousse.
Even though it is made with chili peppers, the spice level is mild. The lime adds a citrus kick, and the sea salt brings the two together. And I don’t know about you, but I love something sweet and salty.
perfect drink on a hot summer day!
Helpful Tips
- Store-bought lemonade is great – No need to get too fancy with these frozen peach refreshers. Your favorite store-bought lemonade will work great.
- Tajin is a must – You may find you clean the rim of the glass before you even take a sip! The tajin is zesty, mild, and a delicious mix of sweet and salt.
- Chill the serving glasses – This is a nice tip to keep the frozen drink cool. Refrigerate your serving glasses for a few minutes before serving the refreshers.
- Garnish with fresh peach slices – An optional step, but fresh peach slices make a pretty presentation.
