18 Best Peach Schnapps Cocktails 

Sex on the Beach Cocktail 

By Mix That Drink

Sex On The Beach is arguably the most popular peach schnapps drink. The name alone makes it a fun drink with tons of fruity flavor that’s perfect for bachelorette parties and summertime get-togethers with friends.

Peach schnapps combines vodka, orange juice, and cranberry juice in a tall glass over ice to make this drink. Some recipes use grenadine instead of cranberry juice, but that’s a personal preference that’s completely up to you! 

Fuzzy Navel

By Persnickety Plates 

Vodka and orange juice is a classic cocktail, but adding peach schnapps to the mix takes up to a whole new level. There’s just something about peach and orange flavors blending together that’s so delicious. 

This peach schnapps cocktail is one of the easiest to make, and you can take some liberties and create something new — like skipping the OJ and adding pineapple juice instead for a more tropical twist. 

Kentucky Dirty 

By Created By Diane

You might be familiar with the Kentucky Derby cocktail, but this one is a bit different, and it’s an amazing sweet treat on a warm day, whether you live in Kentucky or not! 

Pour bourbon, peach schnapps, and unsweetened iced tea into a cocktail shaker with ice cubes and shake until well chilled and frothy. If you have a sweet tooth, you could use sweetened iced tea instead. However, we found it to make this cocktail overly sweet. 

Royal Flush Cocktail 

By Homemade Food Junkie

If you’re not feeling lucky, this delicious drink will change all of that! It’s this wonderful combination of Crown Royal whiskey, peach liqueur, and cranberry juice. There are two versions included here, with one adding simple syrup to the mix and the other opting for a black raspberry liqueur instead. They’re both great, in our opinion. 

We also like to add a couple of slices of frozen peaches as a garnish that does double duty to also keep the drink nice and cold. 

Peach Long Island Iced Tea  

By LowCarbology

The long island ice tea is notorious for being the booziest of classic cocktails. This version takes a spin by adding some juicy peach flavor. Plus, it’s also one of the best keto-friendly peach schnapps drinks. 

For this drink, you’ll want to fill your glass with vodka, bourbon, white rum, and peach schnapps. An iced tea-flavored water enhancer adds the tea flavor with no added carbs, and club soda or sparkling water adds some fizziness and dilutes the strong alcohol taste. For a more fruity flavor, we like to switch out the regular vodka for raspberry vodka instead. 

Peach Margarita 

By Key Ingredient

A good margarita is a cocktail that’s easy to enjoy any time of the year, but we especially love this peach version during the summertime. Tequila and margarita mix (or sweet and sour mix) are the base, along with peach schnapps. Then frozen or fresh peach slices are added to the blender with some crushed ice, and from there, it’s blended into the perfect peachy frozen cocktail. 

We like to add a good squeeze of fresh lime juice and a little peach nectar to amp up the flavor. If you have the peach puree, you can use that in place of the peach slices. You can also add some fun color and orange flavor by including blue curacao into the mix. 

Peach Daiquiri     

By Recipes.net

Next to a frozen margarita, a frozen daiquiri is one of our favorite cocktail recipes. Light rum, peach schnapps, apricot brandy, lime juice, and fresh peaches make this a perfect cocktail with a wonderful sweet flavor. For a more tropical vibe, use coconut rum instead. Don’t forget to garnish with a nice, juicy peach slice!

Peach Bellini 

By The Pioneer Woman

A traditional Bellini is made with prosecco and peach puree. This cocktail recipe doesn’t stray too far from that, except frozen strawberries and peaches are blended with peach schnapps to make your own fruity puree. 

Pour the puree into champagne glasses and top with your favorite sparkling wine for a refreshing drink that’s perfect for brunch or breakfast in bed. Frozen strawberries and orange slices make the perfect garnish. 

Love Potion 

By The Chunky Chef

The Love Potion is one of those peach schnapps drinks that are perfect for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or a girls’ night. It’s essentially a fuzzy navel but is made with ruby red grapefruit juice instead of orange juice.

Using ruby red juice instead of regular is important for the color, but you could also use a dash of unsweetened cranberry juice or pomegranate juice to achieve the same effect. 

Hippie Juice 

By Sugar and Soul

Hippie Juice is a cocktail with a tropical vibe and a sweet taste that’s super easy to drink more than once. It’s full of fruity flavors, but amazingly it doesn’t have a single drop of fruit juices in it. It gets its fruity peach flavor from a combination of peach liqueur, watermelon vodka, triple sec, coconut rum, and powdered pink lemonade mix. 

Trust us. This will become your favorite recipe for summertime get-togethers. 

Peach Pie Cocktail

By Amanda’s Cookin

So many cocktails with peach schnapps are overly sweet. We like this one because it’s not what we consider to be sticky-sweet at all, but it’s still filled with wonderful peach flavor, and it honestly does taste like peach pie. 

Peach schnapps, butterscotch schnapps, and cinnamon liqueur are the three ingredients. We like to garnish ours with a cinnamon stick and maraschino cherries. Be warned. This one has a kick, so it’s not for the faint of heart.  

Peach Me

By Diffords Guide 

Whiskey lovers who like a little bit of peach in their drink are sure to enjoy Peach Me. Use your favorite choice of bourbon or Canadian whisky and about a half ounce of peach schnapps, plus a few dashes of bitters. An orange slice makes a nice garnish for this, but it’s not a necessary add-on. 

Peach Bourbon Cocktail

By A Couple Cooks

This cocktail is similar to the Peach Me above but with just a few minor changes. In addition to bourbon and peach liqueur, there’s fresh orange juice and just a hint of mint that makes this drink stand out among peach cocktails. 

Peach Old Fashioned 

By The G&M Kitchen

The old-fashioned is a classic, elegant cocktail. If you’re a fan, we think you might also like this version with a decidedly Southern twist. Bourbon, peach liqueur, and bitters are the only required ingredients. Due to the peach schnapps, you can skip the sugar. We still like to garnish ours with an orange slice and a cherry, but you could just as easily use a peach slice instead. 

Woo Woo Cocktail 

By Dishes Delish 

This peach schnapps cocktail is as fun and delicious as it sounds. Vodka, peach schnapps, cranberry juice, and lime juice are shaken together in a cocktail mixer for pure perfection. You can go elegant with this cocktail and serve it in coupes with lemon slices floating on top, or take a fun route and add gummy bears for the garnish instead. 

Crown Royal Peach and Cream Cocktail

By Homemade Food Junkie

This peach cocktail, in our opinion, is an absolute dream. It’s rich and creamy and makes for easy sipping after a long day. Crown Royal Peach, peach schnapps, and cream soda are the three ingredients you need, but you could easily add other flavors to the mix, like maybe a dash of pomegranate juice for a holiday-inspired cocktail. 

Pink Peach Lemonade 

By Food.

Nothing beats an ice-cold lemonade during the hot summer months, except for maybe a lemonade that’s infused with boozy peach flavors. Pink lemonade mix, peach schnapps, and ginger ale are the main ingredients. We also like to add a little fresh lemon juice to the mix to give it just the right amount of tartness to balance all of the sweetness. 

Mexican Sunset

By Real Housemoms

You’ve heard of a tequila sunrise, so why not try a Mexican Sunset the next time you’re in the mood for a peachy cocktail? Layers of tequila, amaretto, peach schnapps, and grenadine make this a drink you won’t soon forget. Garnish with wedges of lime and sweet cherries. Enjoy!
