Three (!!!) different rums, pineapple juice, lime juice, blackberry syrup, and mint simple syrup all come together in this delectable summer sip.

The Reedy Peach

Gaze out over the Reedy River from our rooftop while you savor this cocktail named in its honor. We’ve created the unofficial signature drink of South Carolina’s favorite fruit with Deep Eddy peach vodka, lime juice, cucumber water, Jack Rudy tonic syrup, mint simple syrup, and lavender bitters.
