Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 ripe peaches, sliced
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup Ciroc peach vodka
- 1 cup granola
- 1 cup whipped cream
Instructions
- Prepare the peaches by washing and slicing them into thin, uniform pieces. Ensure the peaches are ripe but still firm for the best texture.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sliced peaches, sugar, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the peaches become soft and release their natural juices, approximately 10-12 minutes.
- Remove the peach mixture from heat and carefully pour in the Ciroc peach vodka. Allow the mixture to cool completely, letting the flavors infuse and the alcohol slightly reduce.
- While the peach mixture cools, prepare your serving glasses or parfait dishes. Select clear glasses to showcase the beautiful layers of the dessert.
- Begin layering the parfait by first adding a layer of crisp granola at the bottom of each glass, creating a crunchy foundation.
- Spoon the cooled, vodka-infused peach mixture over the granola, ensuring an even distribution of fruit and syrup.
- Top each parfait with a generous dollop of fresh whipped cream, creating a light and airy final layer.
- Optional: Garnish with additional granola sprinkles or a small mint leaf for added visual appeal.
- Chill the parfaits in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of sweet peaches, crisp granola, and smooth Ciroc vodka.
Tips
- Peach Selection is Key: Choose ripe but firm peaches for the best texture and flavor. Look for peaches that give slightly when gently pressed but aren't mushy.
- Vodka Infusion Technique: Let the Ciroc peach vodka cool with the peaches to allow a subtle, elegant alcohol flavor without overwhelming the dessert.
- Layering Matters: Use clear glasses to showcase the beautiful layers. Take your time when layering to create visually appealing parfaits.
- Whipped Cream Hack: For extra stability, chill your whipping cream and bowl before whipping for a more voluminous and stable topping.
- Make-Ahead Friendly: You can prepare the peach mixture and granola layers in advance, assembling just before serving to keep the granola crisp.
- Temperature Control: Chilling the parfaits for 15-20 minutes before serving helps the flavors meld and creates a more refined dessert experience.
- Garnish Creatively: Experiment with mint leaves, extra granola sprinkles, or even a light dusting of cinnamon to elevate the presentation.
