How to Make : Pavlova with Gin Roasted Peaches | White Wine Cask Aged Gin

A pavlova is synonymous with summer and goes down a treat with everyone around the table. This crisp but chewy meringue is topped with roasted peaches that are infused with cinnamon, orange and Eden Mill Burgundy White Wine Cask Aged Gin. Topped with red grapes, mint and indulgent double cream, it’s a showstopper at any summer get-together.

Preparation time: 40 minutes 

Cooking time: 1 hour 15 minutes 

Serves: 8 

  

Ingredients: 

  

For the pavlova: 

5 large egg whites 

250g caster sugar 

1 tsp cornflour 

1 tsp white wine vinegar 

  

For the roasted fruit: 

6 peaches, stones removed and quartered 

75g light soft brown sugar 

1/2 tsp cinnamon 

100ml Eden Mill Burgundy White Wine Cask Aged Gin 

1 orange, juiced and zest peeled 

  

To serve: 

350ml double cream 

1 tbsp icing sugar 

finely grated zest 1 orange 

red grapes, halved 

mint leaves 

  

Directions 

  

To make the pavlova, preheat the oven to 140ºC / fan 120ºC / gas 1. Draw a 20cm x 30cm rectangle on a sheet of baking parchment. Turn the sheet over and use it to line a large baking tray. 

  

In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites with an electric whisk until it forms stiff peaks. Add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the meringue is smooth and glossy, and all the sugar has dissolved. Whisk in the cornflour and white wine vinegar. 

  

Spoon the meringue onto the prepared tray, using a palette knife to spread it just inside the pencil marks. 

  

Bake the meringue for 1 hour, then turn the oven off and allow to cool completely inside the oven. 

  

To prepare the roasted fruit, preheat the oven to 220ºC / 200ºC Fan / gas 7. Toss the sliced fruit in a roasting dish with the sugar, cinnamon, gin and orange. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until softened. Set aside to cool completely. 

  

Whisk together the double cream, icing sugar and orange zest until thickened and pillowy.  

  

When you are ready to serve, spread the cream over the meringue, then spoon over the roasted fruit, allowing the juices to drip down the sides. Dot with the halved grapes and mint leaves.

Those of you who have followed Eden Mill for a few years will be familiar with our popular range of Cask Aged Gins. We’re delighted to be bringing them back to the portfolio, with a new look and two new expressions - a Sauternes Cask Aged Gin and a Spanish and French Red Wine Cask Aged Gin. 

Both have the same award-winning London Dry base spirit, but maturation has taken them on a unique journey as the cask influence and the wine character take hold. The result is two delicious and distinctive gins that are a must try for anyone that’s looking to level up their G&T, add an extra layer to their Negroni or jazz up a Hugo Spritz 

The Sauternes Cask Aged Gin adds a honeyed, yellow fruit aspect to the gin. The dry, peppery juniper is tempered by syrupy peaches. Again, this is one to try with tonic at first to pick out those unique dessert wine properties. Thereafter, it can stand up in a white negroni, a Hugo Spritz, even as a decadent Tom Collins.   

The duo is perfect for every serve and occasion, so why not pick them both up for the gin aficionado in your life?
