Peach Wine Coolers

Recipe  (Adapted from Annie’s Eats)

1 lb. fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
2 oz. peach schnapps
Generous pinch of kosher salt
2 (750 mL) bottles dry Riesling, Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc, divided
Ice, for serving
Additional sliced peaches, for serving
In the bowl of a blender or food processor, combine the peaches, peach schnapps, salt and a scant 2 cups of the wine.  Puree until smooth and frothy, about 1 minute.  Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve if desired (I skipped this step and preferred the thicker texture of the peach puree) and transfer to a pitcher.  Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

When ready to serve, fill wine glasses with ice.  Fill the glasses halfway with the peach mixture and top off the rest of the way with the additional white wine.  Garnish with sliced peaches as desired.
