🧡One of the many things my Grandma has taught m

🧡One of the many things my Grandma has taught me is that if you are going to drink gin don't skimp, get the good stuff. So when I first tried Breckenridge Distillery Gin my first thought was "Gma will love this!" Then of course my second thought was 🤔"What can I bake using gin??" And 🍑Peaches & Cream 🍑was the answer. Sweet Biscuits, Homemade Whipped Cream, and Peach (with gin!) Sauce make a perfect sweet spring-time treat. Don't have fresh peaches? No worries the frozen kind work great too!P.S. Some of the other things Gma has taught me--*Trust your instincts as parent, there is a reason you have them.*Put your jewelry in the same place every night, so you don't end up loosing it.*The only reason to eat dinner is to get to the dessert. ...#breckdistillery #breck #ginlover #dogmotherginlover #ginandtonic #g&t #peachesandcream #palisadepeaches #sweetbiscuit #peachshortcake #strawberryshortcake #springtime #lightdessert #springdessert #summertreat #bbqdessert #easydessert #teaparty #drinkandbake
