Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon vodka

Directions

  1. Coarsely chop peaches, and place them in a large bowl. Crush with your hands or a potato masher until only very small pieces remain. Stir in lemon juice, sugar, and herbs if desired. Cover, and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, 1 hour. Stir in vodka, then the cream. Discard herbs.
