“Beat that heat
With a breeze of cool,
Dashes of fruit
Swimming in a pool.
Dribbles of thirst
Beading around the rim,
Crisp and light
Go on..drink it to the brim.”
 
Ingredients
1 bottle of dry white wine (750ml-1lt)
½ cup peach liqueur
1 cup peach ice tea
½ cup grapes, halved
½ cup strawberries, halved
2 peaches, sliced
½ pear, chopped
½ apple, chopped
¼ cup blueberries or rasberries
1 tablespoon lime juice
4 tablespoon brown sugar
(you can use whatever fruits you like, but make sure they are firm and not mushy as we don’t want them to blend into the wine and overpower it’s crispness)
Mix the fruits with the sugar, peach tea, lime juice and liqueur. Do not crush the fruits but toss them slightly so that they are fully coated. Let the mixture sit for 1 hour.
Add the wine, some ice cubes and mix well. Chill for at least 4 hours before serving. Top up with a little soda before serving for an added zing!
