Notes

For the best texture, slice peaches right before assembling so they stay juicy and hold their shape. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; the berries will soften slightly. Freezing is not recommended. For a lighter option, use agave or maple syrup in the same amount to keep it dairy-free and lower-glycemic.
