Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1-1/2 cups white sugar
2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves
7 cups peach nectar
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 (750 milliliter) bottles white wine such as Pinot Grigio

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, basil leaves, half of the peach nectar and lemon juice. 2. Bring to a simmer, crushing the basil leaves with the back of a spoon to release their flavor. Simmer just long enough to melt the sugar, then remove from the heat and allow to cool. 3. Strain the basil mixture into a pitcher filled with ice cubes. Pour in wine and remaining peach nectar. Stir briefly and serve.
