2/3 Cups of Clover Honey

½ Teaspoon Fresh Grated Ginger

3/4 Cup Fresh Squeezed Lemon juice

Basil leaves for garnish

Fresh Peach Slices for Garnish

1. Run the peeled peaches through a food processor with a chop blade for a chunky result. Place in a bowl and put aside.

2. Combine wine, water, basil and honey in a medium pot and bring to a boil stirring for 5 minutes.

3. Remove the lid and allow to cool.

4. Add ginger and fresh peaches, stirring well.
