Perfectly Peach

Mocktails are a new obsession.  (You know, cocktails without the alcohol.)  They are especially fun in the summer, with all of the delicious farm fresh fruit.  There was one lonely peach left in the refrigerator this evening, so I decided to put it to good use.  I didn't have a recipe on hand so I just made it up as I went.  I think it turned out pretty well- definitely a refreshing summer drink!
