Lunch at New Sheridan Chop House in Telluride was the perfect time to try their Peach Martini. I wanted some light with a touch of sweet, but not too sweet. The Peach Martini fit the bill perfectly. Plus my cousin created it so I had to try his creative cocktail!I loved the hint of cracked pepper as a garnish to balance the sweetness of peach purée.
