First things first – start the weekend off with a refreshing beverage. How incredible does this look?! Mixed simply with summer peaches, orange liquor, tequila, and the twist – Aperol, then blended with ice and finished with a swirl of sweet, creamy coconut milk, this is exactly what you need to end the week. A refreshing summer cocktail that’s perfectly icy, sweet, and so delicious! A spicy tajin-lined rim keeps everyone coming back for a second round. Make the punch version to serve to family and friends! Click here for the recipe by Half-Baked Harvest.
