Mock Peach Slush ( Healthy Diabetic Recipe )
by Tarla Dalal
Here is a quick drink to stimulate your gastronomic juices! This appetising dish should ideally be made only with fresh fruits since canned fruits are loaded with sugar; but if you have no choice, remember to remove the sugar syrup in order to make it suitable for the diabetic palate.
When peaches are in season, try to buy fresh ones, which should first be cooked in a little water with some sugar substitute before being used in the juice. And do not forget to add the ginger juice, which imparts an unusually enticing tang to the peaches.
