1/2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

salt to taste

freshly ground white pepper to taste (optional)

2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro

1 cilantro leaf per serving

 

Puree the nectarines in a blender with the orange juice, grape juice,

Tabasco, and balsamic vinegar. Taste for seasoning. Add cilantro
