If pop tarts and toaster strudels had a baby, these cinnamon peach strudels would be it, and man are they delicious! I had some overly ripe peaches and nectarines that my family had decided would rot in the fridge because they were too soft and I decided to rescue them by making these tasty peach strudels! They are easy and so perfect for summer whether you eat them plain or warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Do yourself a favor and make these delicious cinnamon peach strudels with a vanilla peach glaze the next time you grab some peaches.

If you are finding yourself knee deep in summer fruit like cherries and peaches and can’t eat them fast enough before they all go bad, then I have a solution for you. A summer crumble is the best way to use up any fruit that you have on hand and it is always a crowd pleaser. I tend to get excited and overbuy all of the fruit in the summer and end up with a handful of fruit that ripens too quickly on me. Instead of letting it go to waste, I like to make a yummy dessert out of them instead. This recipe for a cherry peach crumble is truly summer in a bowl, especially topped off with a little vanilla ice cream.

It's Friday, so of course I made you a cocktail again. I have decided that since it's summer and the heat is out of control that the least I can do is make you a refreshing drink every week, I mean that's just the kinda girl I am. And the peaches at the farmer's market right now have been so dang sweet and juicy that I couldn't resist making another cocktail with them. This peach mojito is going to make you very happy and it's the perfect refreshing drink when it's a thousand degrees outside.

I was reading one of my favorite foodie bloggers Heather Christo, when I stumbled upon her nectarine mojito (she has gorgeous cocktails) and I immediately realized that I need to make a peach mojito! Genius. And turns out the flavor combo of peach, lime, mint, and rum is dynamite! The peaches were so sweet, that I only had to add agave to sweeten the drink ever so slightly, which means you don't have to feel bad about drinking more than one...

You're welcome.

By now, maybe you have made my peach and blueberry sangria (if not that's ok you still can), and now you will have to try my peach mojito! It's ready in a jiff, looks super fancy, and is so delicious! Even Canean who isn't a mojito connoisseur like myself, but loves him some peaches, ended up loving this drink!

Listen, make it tonight...make it tomorrow, I don't care as long as you make it!

Fridays and cocktails...we have talked about this before. They just go together right? You've had a hard week, you have been waiting for today since the moment you woke up to go to work on Monday, and it's finally here! You need a cocktail, I get it. I have your back. I have a cocktail recipe for you to make this weekend so you don't even have to think about it! It's not just any ole sangria...it's peach and blueberry sangria!

By now you know that I went blueberry picking last week and that I have basically been putting blueberries in anything and everything that I possibly can! So naturally it only made sense when I was making a sangria that blueberries should be included. And peaches just seemed like the natural choice for another fruit to add since I had some fresh and local ones from the farmer's market! And they do pair quite nicely together!

It's refreshing and perfect for quenching your thirst on a hot day. Or you know what? It would be amazing at your Fourth of July party! It's so pretty...AND you can make a big pitcher of it the night before!

Because the last thing you need to do on the day of a party is worry about mixing up a batch of cocktails. But even if you aren't having a party go ahead and make the sangria! It will keep in the fridge for a couple of days so I think you will be able to handle it yourself.
