The Star Ingredient: DeKuyper Peachtree Blossom Liqueur
Ever wondered who’s behind the genius creation of Peachtree liqueur—the star ingredient in our beloved Fizzy Peachtree cocktail? Well, let us take you on a journey back to the early 1980s, where a man named Earl LaRoe, a flavor scientist for National Distillers, was pruning his peach trees in the quaint suburb of Greenhills, just outside Cincinnati, Ohio.
The Birth of Peachtree: A Stroke of Peachy Brilliance
LaRoe, tasked with developing a lighter, sweeter, and lower-proof liqueur, found inspiration in the very trees he tended to. Armed with the essence of ripe peaches and a vision for something truly groundbreaking, Peachtree liqueur was born in 1984. LaRoe’s meticulous craftsmanship and delicate distillation process ensured that Peachtree captured the authentic taste and aroma of tree-ripened peaches, earning it the title of the “Original Peachtree.”
From Orchard to Cocktail Glass: Peachtree’s Global Journey
Since its inception, Peachtree liqueur has taken the world by storm, becoming a staple in bars and households across 100 countries. Its versatility and ease of mixability quickly made it a favorite among bartenders, especially for crafting beloved classics like the Fuzzy Navel. This iconic cocktail, consisting of Peachtree liqueur and orange juice, played a pivotal role in ushering in the cocktail renaissance of the 1980s, solidifying Peachtree’s status as a beloved household name.
