Grilled Peach Frappe

For 4 cocktails:
2 fresh peaches, halved
3 oz. Southern Comfort
2 tsp. raw sugar
2 Tbsp. fresh lime
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon
1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 C. ice
additional peach for garnish, sliced

Grill peach halves on the rack of an uncovered charcoal grill or gas grill preheated to medium for 8-10 min., or until tender and lightly browned (uncovered if using charcoal & covered if using gas). Midway through grilling, rotate peaches one-quarter turn to create crosshatch marks...and creating best flavor. Remove from heat; cool. Slip off peach skin, using a peeler if necessary.
In a blender container, combine peaches and remaining ingredients, except ice. Cover and blend on high for 20 sec; add ice and blend until smooth. Serve at once in chilled glasses. Top each with a slice or two of fresh peach.
