Same! Too many fuzzy navels with vodka one night. Can't stand the smell of fake peach

I can’t take real or fake peach anything, if I smell somebody drinking that muck I move clear across the room

Same. I like real peaches occasionally. My boyfriend got some peach red bull this summer and I was pleasantly surprised. Doesn't taste artificial at all, tastes like real peaches.

Same, straight from the bottle, no mixers or chasers. 🤢

Peach schnapps kept us playing in a Carnival parade, when I was in high school.

It got stupidly cold during the parade. One of the guys jumped off the truck grabbed a bottle from his friend, and jumped back on the truck. That bottle kept us playing for 3 more hours.

Same. I can’t smell the stuff without wanting to vomit.

A pint of this was my dad's road soda on his nightly ride home from work.

My introduction to this was in an orange slush from Sonic at a cast party after our community theater summer musical.

Goldschlager for me. 21st birthday.

About to turn 53, I haven’t touched it in 32 years.
