Iโ€™ve been trying to think of alternate titles for this video because itโ€™s one of my favorite things to do. I named my first live television appearance โ€˜The time I touched food with my bare hands and then handed it to someone to eatโ€ฆlive on air.ย  LIVE.โ€™ย  You can see it here.

For this video, the only alternative title Iโ€™ve come up with is โ€œThe time I said 4 shots and ended up pouring a fifth of bourbon for two people.ย  ONE FIFTH. For.two.people.โ€™

You will be having a good night after making this cocktail.ย  Maybe you should use a shot glass and get a more accurate measurement of one shot?ย  Maybe not.

Maybe get drunk on your back porch, and have a lengthy discussion about whether or not your all-natural lemongrass oil deodorant is keeping the mosquitos away (arms flailing for demonstration!) or if citronella candles are necessary?ย  Your call.

Iโ€™m just saying, when two people share a fifth of bourbon, big things get discussed in life.ย  BIG.ย  Iโ€™m also saying:ย  measure better than I did.

A few more words:ย  shake the cocktail for much longer than I did in the video.ย  It takes a special kind of confidence to shake things on camera.ย  Lucky for you, Iโ€™ve got oodles of it.

But seriously, if you donโ€™t shake it harder and longer than I did, the peach jam will sadly sit at the bottom of the glass.ย  Then, all youโ€™re looking at is bourbon on the rocks.ย  One fifthโ€”err, we already covered that.

Be safe, friends!

PS I love you to the moon and back.

    Love the video but I thought โ€˜Iโ€™ invented the use of jam in cocktails! :) Seriously Iโ€™ve been using jam for a while; itโ€™s a great way to not only make it simple but to be able to use fruits that arenโ€™t in season. My favorite is a recipe for cherry preserves, tequila and ginger beer. But I admit I love peach and bourbon and I do have to give this a whirl!

    Christina: I donโ€™t normally post comments, but Iโ€™ve been SO enjoying your blog and this video was absolutely fantastic. I tried this recipe and couldnโ€™t find ANY peach jam at my grocery store so I used blackberry instead. And woahโ€ฆ just thought Iโ€™d let you know that although the drink turned a bit purple, it tasted so good! Thanks for your creativity!
