How to Make Beach Peach Lemonade
This might be the easiest thing you do all day besides skipping the laundry, of course.
Step-by-Step:
- Start with ice. Grab a pretty glass (or your favorite mason jar), and fill it up with ice. This keeps your crown peach lemonade nice and chill.
- Pour in the peach magic. Measure out 1.5 oz of Crown Royal Peach and pour it over the ice.
- Add lemonade. About ½ cup will do, but feel free to adjust depending on how strong or sweet you like it.
- Give it a stir. Just a quick swirl with a straw or spoon to combine.
- Garnish (if you’re feeling extra). A peach slice or lemon wheel makes it look Insta-worthy.
And that’s it. Seriously.

Tasty Tips for the Perfect Sip
- Use fresh lemonade for a more natural, tangy flavor or get wild with a sparkling lemonade!
- Want it boozier? Add a splash more Crown Peach or turn it into a Jim Beam Peach mixed drink for a twist.
- Hosting? Make it a pitcher cocktail. Just scale up the recipe and keep it cool with frozen peach slices instead of ice.
Serving Ideas
Pour it into a tall glass over crushed ice, garnish with a lemon slice and fresh peach if you’re feeling fancy, and serve with a fun straw or cocktail umbrella. It pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, fruit salads, or just chips and gossip with your bestie.
Make Ahead & Storage
You can mix a big batch of Beach Peach Lemonade in a pitcher for easy party prep. Just store it in the fridge and give it a good stir before serving. Leftovers (if there are any!) can be kept chilled for up to 2 days. For longer storage, leave the alcohol out until ready to serve and mix fresh.
Avoid freezing this one, though alcohol doesn’t freeze well, and lemonade gets weirdly icy-slushy when defrosted.
A Little Sip of My Life
The first time I made this drink, I was hosting a casual backyard BBQ that quickly spiraled into a dance party. I had a bottle of Crown Peach from a gift basket and some lemonade in the fridge. I threw them together out of desperation (and curiosity), and just like that Beach Peach Lemonade was born. The pitcher emptied in ten minutes. Even my mother-in-law asked for the recipe. Now that’s a win.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make Beach Peach Lemonade with a different whiskey?
Yes! If you’re out of Crown Royal Peach, try Jim Beam Peach for a similar flavor profile. It’s a great alternative for Jim Beam Peach mixed drinks.
Is this drink strong?
It depends on your pour! With 1.5 oz of Crown Peach, it’s light and perfect for sipping. Want it stronger? Add more whiskey or less lemonade.
Can I use pink lemonade?
Absolutely! It gives a fun twist and pretty color. You can also try sparkling or lavender lemonade for a more playful crown royal peach recipe.
What’s the best glass to serve it in?
A tall highball or mason jar works beautifully. You want something that shows off the color and holds plenty of ice.
Is Beach Peach Lemonade sweet?

Can I batch this for a party?
YES. Just multiply the amounts by the number of servings you need. Keep it chilled and stir before serving.
