COOL PEEP TIP: When adding a Peep marshmallow to a cool cocktail like a Cosmopolitan, it won’t dissolve as quickly as in a hot beverage. Instead, it may absorb some liquid, softening slightly over time. While it won’t melt rapidly, prolonged exposure may cause it to break down and subtly sweeten the drink as it sits. Skewer the PEEP across the top of the glass on split it on the edge instead of allowing it to float if you don’t want it to change shape.
