Stage 6 - 5 min.
Slice the peaches fairly thickly (a mandolin is ideal for this; a good knife also works, though it takes a bit longer).
Stage 7 - 1 min.
Pour the cold mojito syrup over the peaches and mix well.

Stage 8
Serve cool, but not too cold, in individual dishes, for example, garnished with a sprig of mint.
Remarks
If you are in a hurry, use sugar syrup instead of the mix of different sugars and water in stage 1. This will also be a bit sweeter.
The quantities of rum and lime juice are for guidance, so do feel free to adapt these to suit your taste.
If you don't have white peaches, the yellow sort or nectarines will work fine, but it is important to use really ripe, flavoursome fruit.
