A summer syrup with lemongrass and fresh peaches

The perfect summer syrup that brings together in-season peaches and Delta Lemongrass. Its fruity and floral flavor makes this syrup a great sweetener. This is the main ingredient used in a popular drink in Vietnam: peach lemongrass iced tea! It also goes great with seltzer, mocktail, or cocktail. Take advantage of stone fruit season and add this wonderful syrup to your rotation!
