You can replace the canned apricots with 12 fresh apricots. Apricots are in season in June. Can substitute the sparkling wine/Champagne for 2 (12-ounce) cans ginger ale or lemon-lime soda. From Southern Living, April 2005 on Ingredients:
2 (15 ounce) cans apricot halves, drained (don't mix the 2 cans together) |
2 (11 1/2 ounce) cans apricot nectar (don't mix the 2 cans together) |
1/2 cup sugar, divided |
crushed ice |
1 (750 ml) bottle sparkling wine or 1 (750 ml) bottle champagne, chilled |
fresh mint sprig (optional, for garnish) |
Directions:
1. Process half each of apricot halves, apricot nectar, and sugar in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Repeat with remaining apricot halves, nectar, and sugar.
2. Serve over crushed ice with sparkling wine/Champagne or ginger ale/lemon-lime soda. Garnish, if desired. * Note: You can stir together the the apricot mixture and the sparking wine/Champagne/soda in a picture. Be sure and do this just before serving.
