Who says blender cocktails can't contain farmers' market produce? Here's a drink that highlights our favorite late-summer fruit.

Cooks' Note

To freeze fresh peaches, pit, slice, and place on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, then transfer to resealable plastic bags until ready to use. If fresh peaches are not available, substitute store-bought frozen peaches.
