Sparkling Peach Soup


1/2 pound small peaches (peeled, pitted and sliced – set aside some small slices for garnish)


1 1/2 cups ripe pears (diced)

1 cup apricot nectar

2 tablespoons vanilla yogurt

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup chilled blush champagne or sparkling juice

In a blender combine peaches, pears, nectar, yogurt, and lemon juice until smooth. Add more nectar and lemon juice as needed. Chill at least one hour before serving. Immediately before serving stir in chilled champagne/sparking juice (do not use a blender to do this or you will make it flat).

This is best served with a warm honey glazed croissant and a glass of champagne.

*Tip: This can be made up to one day in advance – just make sure to keep refrigerated and mix well before serving.



Prep time: 25 minutes
