1. To make peach puree, use a good household blender and puree one large ripe peace with 8 ounces of simple syrup. (Leave the skin on for a beautiful pink color.) Add a teaspoon of lemon juice to help preserve the color.

2. Combine all ingredients in a shaker. Shake and strain into a Collins glass. Top with a splash of seltzer. Give a light stir and garnish with a grapefruit peel.
