We start with local peaches grown by our friends at Lee's One Fortune Farm, then slowly cook them with bourbon until the fruit becomes rich, jammy, and deeply flavorful. That bourbon-peach reduction is blended directly into the ice cream, with an extra swirl added for good measure.
This flavor comes with an origin story...
Back in 2009, Ashley and I had the good fortune of traveling to a wedding in Northern California. One night while on the way there we stopped in San Francisco's Little Italy for dinner. It was in a cozy little restaurant with maybe 4 total tables, delicious housemade pasta, delightful music, and everything was as fresh as it could be. Over dinner, absorbing every ounce of the perfectly manicured atmosphere, we naturally discussed potential peach Ice Cream combinations. With deep fondness and bubbling enthusiasm we stared into each other's eyes and simultaneously whispered, "peaches and bourbon cooked together..." That's its origin story and Southern Comfort is the name - we've been making it this time of year ever since.
