Ingredients

The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 1 bottle white or rose wine- viognier, pinot grigio, riesling, rose
  • 3 ripe peaches, plus more for garnish
  • ¼ Cup Elderflower liquor like St Germain ( or sub another fruity or floral liqueur- see notes)
  • ¼ Cup sugar
  • ¼ Cup water
  • Handful fresh herbs- mint, basil, lemon balm, lemon verbena, or lemon thyme

Instruction

  • Make simple Syrup: Bring sugar, water and a handful of fresh herbs to a simmer, in a small pot on the stove, stirring until sugar dissolves. Let cool either on the counter,  or for an even more intense herb flavor,overnight in the fridge.
  • Slice peaches. Place peaches, wine, herbed simple syrup and a splash or two of Elderflower liquor ( St. Germaine) in a pitcher or large mason jar. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. It will become more and more flavorful if left overnight or even for a couple days. Peaches may brown slightly, but will taste better and better.
  • If serving to guests, strain out the browning peaches, and replace with freshly sliced peaches, and handful of fresh herbs and serve over ice.
