We’ve turned this classic sparkling peach beverage into a slushy, perfect for hot summer days.
4 cups peeled, sliced peaches, (4 peaches) slightly frozen
3/4 cup simple syrup
2 cups ice
1 750-mL bottle Prosecco, chilled
1 firm ripe peach, cut into 8 wedges
mint leaves
WHIRL peaches, simple syrup, ice and half of the prosecco in a blender until smooth and slushy. Slowly add remaining prosecco and pulse to combine (blender will be full).
POUR into 8 glasses. Garnish with fresh peach wedges and mint.

Kitchen tip: To make simple syrup, boil 1 cup sugar with 1 cup water in a small saucepan until sugar dissolves. Let cool, then refrigerate up to 2 months.
Kitchen tip: Make the slightly frozen peaches in advance. Arrange peeled peach wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer. Freeze, then put in a freezer bag. Store frozen until needed. Let stand for 15 minutes at room temperature before using.
