This easy peach martini recipe is citrusy, slightly sweet and perfect for summer entertaining. They're made with fresh peaches, a delicious peach honey syrup, vodka and triple sec.
In a small sauce pot add honey, water and diced fresh peaches. Mix together and heat on medium-low heat until mixture begins to simmer, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat and allow the mixture to steep for 10-15 minutes. Drain through a fine mesh sieve and set aside to cool completely.
