Signs & Portents from the last rain-induced battle with Rihanna could only harken that "Fall is Coming..."

Sorry, "Winter is Coming" but not yet...

vs Haagen, Anh & Dazs

TALE OF THE TAPE:

QUINJA:  3-2-2

Haagen, Anh, Dazs:  1-1-1

In our last battle (July 2011), it was a Nguyen (pronounced "Win"), Laos, and a Thai... Get it?  (OK, that was corny funny... you should laugh!).  Now, they've come back with another frozen battle...

RED WINE SANGRIA (A great taste to bid farewell to Summer!).... weighing in at 1.5 Cups!

Entourage: 
1 Cup Sugar, Peels from 2 Lemons (Cut in Strips), Peels from 2 Oranges (Cut in Strips), 1 Cinnamon Stick, 1/2 Cup of Lemon Juice, 1/2 of Orange Juice, 4 Tablespoons of Grand Marnier (Orange Liqueur), 2-4 Peaches (Peeled, Pitted & Chopped - to taste), 1.5 Cups of Water

1. Make a citrus syrup!  1.5 Cups of Water + 1 Cup Sugar + Peels (Lemon & Orange) + Cinnamon Stick.  Boil and reduce for about 20 minutes.  Remove Peels.  Put in freezer to cool it down (about 30 minutes).
2. Puree!  Add peaches, then citrus syrup, then juices, then red wine!
TIP: Use "pulse" on the blender on the chopped peaches to get them going!
3. Finish Him!  In an ice cream maker (about 30 minutes) and then give it the Sub-Zero freezer treatment!



Victory!  Again, the number of peaches will help you with flavor control... add more for sweetness!

Note: I stabbed a few times with a spoon to give you an idea of the texture!  That's right... in a knife fight, the QuinJa brings a spoon!
