Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

4 yellow peaches
4 tbsp caster sugar
500ml (17fl oz) dry white wine
a handful of fresh mint leaves
4 large scoops of vanilla ice cream
Blanch the peaches in boiling water for 1 minute, then skin, stone and slice them thickly.
Put the peach slices in a bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Mix together then cover them with the white wine. Add the mint and put in the fridge for one hour so the flavours have time to develop.
Remove the peaches from the fridge and drain. Arrange the fruit in four individual serving bowls, cover with ice cream and drizzle over any remaining wine to serve.
