Ingredients

6 to 8 very ripe yellow or white peaches
3 tablespoons sugar
1 (375 ml.) bottle good Sauternes
1 tablespoon orange-flavored liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)

Directions

Bring a pot of water to a boil and immerse the peaches in the water for 1 to 2 minutes, until the skins come off easily. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking. Peel the peaches and then slice them in wedges off the pit and into a bowl. Stir in the sugar, Sauternes, and orange liqueur. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Serve cool but not cold.

Great summer light dessert!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used your advice and served it over cream cheese pound cake, and it was incredible! It balances out the sweetness of a... pound cake. I preferred the peaches really cold, and I made the recipe the day before. Very good!Read more

Such a surprise, very simple but impressive. Must leave 4hrs+ for flavours to mature-It does make a difference.
