Six ripe peaches cut in quarters, and boiled in a sugar-boiler with half a pint of syrup for ten minutes, and rubbed through a very clean hair sieve into a basin. Add half a pint of currant juice, a few drops of essence of bitter-almonds, and a pint of syrup; freeze, and set up in the usual way. When currants are not procurable, the juice of two lemons may be used instead, in which case a few drops of cochineal must be added to give the necessary pink tinge.
