Ripe peaches and honeydew are the stars of this cool summer punch. It can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator; just leave out the seltzer until you're ready to serve.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup brandy

  • ¼ cup sugar

  • 2 firm ripe peaches, halved, pitted, and thinly sliced

  • ½ honeydew melon, seeded, peeled, cut lengthwise into thirds, and sliced thinly crosswise (4 cups)

  • 1 bottle white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, well-chilled

  • 1 can (12 ounces) or (1 ½ cups) seltzer or club soda

  • Ice cubes, for serving

Directions

  1. In a large bowl or pitcher combine brandy and sugar. Let stand 5 minutes; stir to dissolve sugar. Add fruit and wine to brandy mixture; stir. Just before serving, add seltzer, and stir again. Serve over ice.
