Summer Indulgence!
Cold and refreshing, this Peach and Moscato slushy drink is a perfect summer time sipper for the hot July and August dog days of summer.
Ripe in-season, juicy peaches along with the fruity and citrusy Elderflower apple lime vinegar combine with sweet Moscato to make a delightful summer cocktail.
BE BRAVE and change it up a little substituting the peaches for sun-ripened strawberries too!
Sitting on the patio this summer is going to be ultra-delicious!

Notes
* The Elderflower Apple Lime vinegar adds wonderful dimension to this drink, but can be substituted with Peach Apricot Vinegar or a sweet liqueur instead. I love an inexpensive sweet Moscato in this recipe.
