  1. oooh, niiice! I also found it very consentrated and added little more water.
     
  2. Tis was oh so good. I did make a few changes though. I didn't have fresh mint so I put 1/4 cup of dried mint in with the water and heated it to extract the flavor.I added the sugar while warm to melt it. After it cooled, I added the peach nectar. I did add just a lttle more water. Lovely summer drink!
     
  3. Yes this is yummy! I did cheat! I didn`t have nectar so I blended can peaches adding frozen concentrate lemonade. Leading me to skip the sugar. I gave one drink a kick with some coconut rum. Oh so yummy!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in a small (but growing to be very large) town in Oklahoma. I am currently a student, studying library science. I like to cook and eat, play the piano and violin, and train and play with my two dogs. I don't have a single favorite cookbook, but of the ones I use, I like BHG the most. Their recipes are usually very good. I would say my passion is learning new things--and traveling to new places. I also enjoy writing fiction. Some of my pet peeves are: 99% of the drivers in Oklahoma; people who don't take good care of their pets; people with NO TASTE; intellectual psychobabble nonsense; boring people; the list goes on forever!
