Tart kiwis are an excellent fruit to muddle into a cocktail, especially when offset with a sweet, fruity liqueur like peach. Gently crush the kiwis to release their juice, add the rest of the ingredients, strain into a glass, and top with sparkling wine.

What to buy: Avoid budget peach schnapps for this recipe and try a brand with a true peachy flavor, like Stirrings or Briottet Crème de Pêche peach liqueur.
