And, peach and basil are the perfect match in this <a href=\"https:\/\/dailyburn.com\/life\/health\/healthy-cocktail-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\">libation<\/a>. Simple and refreshing, this recipe allows you to trade vodka for bourbon if you wish \u2014 or ditch the alcohol altogether! (Coconut water is a great replacement.) Peach juice is best, whether <a href=\"https:\/\/dailyburn.com\/life\/health\/the-truth-about-hpp-juice-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\">home-juiced<\/a> or from a bottle, rather than pur\u00e9eing the fruit, which can be a bit to heavy in this beverage. The basil-infused simple syrup will last in the fridge for a week.
