Behind the Recipe

A Cocktail Fit For A Pitmaster

Smoky, fruity, and robust, this cocktail will truly accentuate the flavors of your grilled dishes. Bring out your pellet grill or smoker and ready yourself for a treat, as we present you the Smoked Peach Smash Cocktail!

Pendleton Whisky meets smoke-infused peaches in this concoction, giving the classic cocktail a hearty upgrade. The subtle smoky flavor complements the richness of the whisky and the sweetness of the peaches, making for a well-rounded, layered experience in every sip.

Cheers to the art of mixology and the joy of discovering new flavor combinations!
