The Next Hybrid Fruit is... The Peacharine
Can't decide between a peach and a nectarine? You no longer have to.

If you're a big fan of peaches and nectarines, this news was made for you. You can now purchase a hybrid of summer's top stone fruits in one juicy bite: the peacharine. The ones we tried from the Baldor Mobile Market were the Magenta Queen variety (available only in June) from Kingsburg Orchards in California. With the fuzzy outside of a peach and the sweet and smooth inside of a nectarine, this is the perfect combination of two seasonal favorites. Plus, it's a one-for-one swap for the peaches in all of your favorite peach cobblers, crisps and pies.
