Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Peach slices
Provide the fruit base and natural sweetness and flavour for the ice.
Sugar
Sweetens the mixture and lowers its freezing point, keeping the ice softer.
Rum
Lowers the freezing point, so the ice stays softer and scoops more easily.
Lime juice
Adds acidity that brightens the peach flavour.

The step that matters

Blend until completely smooth. Any fruit fibres or chunks left behind will freeze into a coarse, icy texture. Thorough blending gives an even, smooth grain as the mixture freezes.

Swap the lime

How well each one fits the dish's main ingredients (peach, rum, sugar):

  1. Vanillafits better
  2. Apricotfits better
  3. Pineapplefits better
  4. Limethe original

Fit is the average pairing score against peach, rum, sugar. Candidates are from the same food group and used in at least 100 recipes.
