When it comes to fresh summer produce, it’s less about recipes and more about letting their purest nature shine through. With these peaches from a local orchard (http://terhuneorchards.com/), the second best way to eat them (first being straight out of their brown paper bag) was drunken. No, not us. The peaches!

Essentially, slice up your peaches in either halves or smaller chunks, put them in a tupperware, sprinkle with sugar (adjust based on the sweetness of your peaches) and then splash a few tablespoons of your favorite adult beverage over (white wine, whiskey, etc). We used the last little dregs of vodka left over from a vodka loving house guest. All it takes is a few hours in the fridge before your peaches transcend their basic selves and become slightly translucent and absolutely deliciously intoxicating (with flavor, not the booze…yeesh, we’re not lushes!).

This would be tasty served with lightly sweetened whipped cream or yogurt…we ate ours plain for the most part but I absolutely loved eating them with spoonfuls of tart greek yogurt for breakfast.
