Description
A simple peach wine syrup takes these parfaits to an elevated adults-only level.
Ingredients
Scale
For the Peach Wine Syrup
- 1/2 cup peach wine
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
For the Parfaits
- 1 pint vanilla bean ice cream, softened
- 1/2 cup diced peaches (see note)
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup whipped cream and mint sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
- Make the peach wine syrup: Heat the wine and sugar in a small sauce pan over medium high heat. Bring it to a simmer and let it bubble until the sugar has dissolved. Transfer to a container and place it in the refrigerator to chill.
- Make the parfaits: scoop about 1/4 cup of ice cream and place in the bottom of each glass. Top with peaches and blueberries. Add a tablespoon or so of the wine syrup over the fruit. Add another 1/4 cup of ice cream, more fruit, and another drizzle of syrup. Place the parfaits in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to firm up the ice cream. To serve, top with whipped cream and a sprig of fresh mint (optional).
Notes
If peaches are not in season, substitute frozen ones – just be sure to thaw them in the refrigerator before using them in the recipe.
