Kaleidoscope Peach Punch is a great recipe to make as a single serving or service for four to eight. A miniature Moscato Wine bottle will make two drinks with the recipe below. For the fruit ice cubes I used the single serve plastic containers that are often marketed as “100 calorie” snack size containers. They make the perfect size block of ice for a standard rocks glass. Since they are individual cups with lids, they stack easily in the freezer without aroma contamination. You can make several fruit ice cubes at once and use them as needed. That’s so much better than an ice tray.
The Kaleidoscope Peach Punch is lightly spiced with great peach flavor. The fruit ice cubes add a splash of color that kind of reminds me of fall leaves as they change colors. The ice melts in the drink while sipping for terrific color and flavor. The fruit marinates as you sip, so there’s a little treat to nibble at the end of the drink.
