This boozy peaches and cream milkshake will certainly bring all the boys to the yard. Or the kitchen.
You ever just have one of those days? I know you have. Where it feels like everything is going wrong. Friday was one of those days for me.
A 30 minute meeting turned into 5 hours. I didn’t get a chance to run all of my errands. My oven broke. MY OVEN BROKE.
This might be the first time I’ve missed apartment living. Where’s maintenance??? We have to fix this crap? Crap.
There’s only one thing to do on a day like this: ice cream. Make that two things: ice cream and alcohol.
This boozy peaches and cream milkshake is like a party in your mouth, and it takes the edge off those days. Bottoms up!
Boozy Peaches and Cream Milkshake
Ingredients
- 2 large very ripe peaches
- 1 cup full-fat vanilla ice cream
- 1 ounce dark rum, or more to taste
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Slice the peaches in half and remove the pit.
- With very clean hands, squeeze the juice and pulp into a blender (this will only work with a very ripe peach). Most of the skin will stay in your hands. Alternately, you can blanch and peel the peaches.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.

Food bloggers CANNOT be without their ovens! I’m so sorry…and hope it is fixed ASAP! Till then a big slosh of rum in an amazing peach milkshake will numb the pain! xo

Broken oven? That’s the pits. But what’s not the pits is this boozy milkshake – looks terrific! I think Gosling’s dark rum would be my rum of choice in this – it has a very slight root beer flavor, but I think it’d work OK with the peaches, and would definitely go with the ice cream. Good stuff – thanks.

I’m sorry to hear about your day! But I bet this drink had a palliative effect on your mood. (<–sorry, trying to practice using them SAT vocabulary words, ha). You had me at boozy.
