    Ingredients

    • 6 lrg ripe peaches
    • 1 Tbsp. honey
    • 1 c. plain yogurt
    • 1/3 c. peach nectar

    • 24 x raspberries

    Directions

    1. To make soup: Place peaches in boiling water for 2 min. Remove and place in ice-water bath. Gently pull off skin. Halve and pit peaches.
    2. In food processor or possibly blender, puree peaches, honey, yogurt, nectar, wine, crystallized ginger, mint, chives, orange zest and five-spice pwdr. Chill, covered, for at least 2 hrs.
    3. Adjust sweetness level, adding a little more yogurt to make sure soup is not so sweet which it will overpower wine.
    4. To serve: Ladle into soup bowls. Garnish with mint sprigs, a small dollop of yogurt and 4 raspberries per bowl placed carefully on top of yogurt. Riesling is the recommended wine to accompany this soup, served as a warm-weather appetizer; second choice, Gewurztraminer.
