3-Ingredient Ginger-Peach Ice Cream Floats image

In Epi's 3-Ingredient Recipes series, we show you how to make great food with just three ingredients (plus staples like oil, salt, and pepper). Poaching peaches in ginger beer infuses them with sweet, spicy flavor. Layer the poached fruit with ice cream and top with more ginger beer for a fun new take on a classic float.

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 small peaches (about 1 pound)
4 cans ginger beer (6 cups), divided
1 pint vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • Preparation Cook peaches in a large pot of boiling water 1 minute, then submerge in ice water. Slip off skins. Slice into 1/4" wedges.
  • Bring peaches and 3 cups ginger beer to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until peaches are fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • To assemble floats, divide peaches among tall glasses and pour 1 Tbsp. poaching liquid over each; reserve remaining poaching liquid for another use. Top with 2 scoops of ice cream, then pour remaining 3 cups ginger beer over. Serve with spoons and straws.
  • Do Ahead Peaches can be poached up to 3 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.
  • Cooks' NoteGinger beer is a non-alcoholic, ginger-flavored carbonated beverage. The remaining peach poaching liquid makes an excellent addition to iced tea or summer cocktails.
