60ml dark/spiced rum
22.5ml lemon juice
22.5ml peach syrup*
1/2 peach diced
5-6 mint leaves

Place peach slices and syrup in a cocktail shaker and muddle all together really well. Add in your rum, lemon juice and mint leaves into a cocktail shaker and fill with ice. Shake really hard for 15-18 seconds and double strain over ice in a rock glass. Place your garnishes in one spot nice and tight.
*Peach Syrup
2 peaches (diced)
1 cup sugar
1.5 cups water
5 fresh bay leaf
1 lemon (peel)
To make peach syrup place all ingredients into pot and bring to a high simmer, stirring to help dissolve sugar. Once you’ve reach a high simmer, reduce heat to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for 10-12 minutes, or until you have a loose syrup consistency. Push through a sieve and make sure you extract all the liquid.
